As you know I'm working on a painting of the red rocks in Utah so it was wonderful to come across your painting. You've really managed to get the size, depth and color of the rocks perfectly. http://carolking.wordpress.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11047244551734990915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7021502836179708879.post-9193291512976390502011-03-12T15:44:39.447+05:302011-03-12T15:44:39.447+05:30Beautifully captured, a thing so awesome that to c...Beautifully captured, a thing so awesome that to catch it in the camera itself one must have enough knowledge to do it properly, and you have done a more difficult job painting it.<br />I was lucky to visit it last year along with other places in the US, and we made it a point to visit both times, morning as well as evening, to capture the light and shade and the changing colors of the Canyon. It was indeed a wonderful experience.<br />A very good painting, lucky brother too.Rama Ananthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00962222316822524699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7021502836179708879.post-10272234804463541732010-11-08T22:47:55.846+05:302010-11-08T22:47:55.846+05:30Thanks Padmaja for comments on my teapot painting....Thanks Padmaja for comments on my teapot painting.

I have a photo of my husband at its edge, from shortly after we married. That photo has inspired our 3 kids, even though they have never been to the canyon. They have each drawn themselves at a cliff's edge, and also tried to recreate the photo whenever they are someplace with a view.
