Beautiful Sedona, Arizona

A collector told me to be sure and see Sedona. I’m glad we took her advice because, just as she said, it’s an incredibly beautiful place. Below are just a few of the many photos I’ve taken so far.

Arches National Park is awesome! I never knew rocks could be so beautiful!

Mesa Verde National Park is a step back in time. Awesome!

Driving the Enchanted Circle

The Enchanted Circle is a scenic drive through beautiful country in New Mexico. The circle includes the mountain villages of Red River, Quest, Taos, Cimarron, Angel Fire and Eagles Nest. All of the towns were charming and quaint, but I think Taos was my favorite. Flowers were blooming everywhere and the Hollyhocks were abundant. Following are some pictures I took while there.

We have found cool weather, at last and the landscape is incredibly beautiful. I think we’ll stay for awhile.

On the road again!

We are leaving our home here in Tyler, Texas tomorrow morning for a wonderful month of leisurely travel. It is so hot here in East Texas right now that we are definitely headed for cooler weather. We will make our way North to visit places like Taos, Durango, Mesa Verde, Sedona, Grand Canyon, Bryce and Zion National Parks. I’ve always wanted to visit Yellowstone too so we may add that to our itinerary as well. I’ll take lots of photos, sketch and paint studies for a new series of paintings once back home.

Thinking of this makes my head spin with the beautiful places I’m going to see. I’m inspired just thinking about it, but being able to see the places up close and personal will be even better. I hope you’ll join me on my Blog where I plan to share our travel experiences with photos and text as we go again in search of beautiful places to paint…..

In 2008 we spent 2 months traveling down the Pacific Coast Highway. This vineyard farm was found as we drove out Santa Rosa Creek Road outside Cambria, California.
