PETRIFIED FOREST & THE PAINTED DESERT By request, I delivered last Saturday a presentation to the Colored  Pencil  Society of San Diego , regarding my 2009 Artist-in-Residence  at the  Petrified Forest National Park .  Above are two plein air sketches of the Painted Desert with the third of myself blocking in the right sketch during my residency.  The request of the presentation was not only a great honor, but a  wonderful opportunity to revisit the memories of a great event!
