FOND MEMORIES AT THE PETRIFIED FOREST NATIONAL PARK


Pastel Sketch / Sketching at the Painted Desert / Painted Desert Pastel

Remember that old saying "Time flies"? It definitely does!
I was just reminiscing today about my travels to the Petrified Forest 
National Park in Arizona and amazed that it has been exactly four years.

I was juried in as one of the Park's 2009 Artist-in-Residents, 
where I lived for two weeks within a three-room historical adobe 
at the Park. Across the road from my front door was
a panoramic view of the Painted Desert. Breathe-taking!

MEMORIES AND FAVORITES

DIGNITY pastel SOLD - PRIVATE COLLECTOR After the holidays, I begun to reminisce of people from my past.    Reflecting, I realize that life experiences have  enriched me greatly in so many ways.  Dignity is not only of a friend I lost touch with,  but also a personal, favorite painting that went to another home. Fond memories.... gone but not forgotten.
