The Guadalupe Mountains rise so sharply off the desert floor that they often create their own weather system. Early one morning, garlands of fog graced the mountains, and I ran out the door without a coat into the freezing air to capture the moment. The emotional grip of that morning inspired this studio drawing.

On the west side of the Park, an expanse of dunes and Chihuahua desert plants provides a luxurious display of light and shadow. And the reward on the way back to the Park residence was stopping off at a ma-and-pa Mexican restaurant in Dell City for the best Chile Rellenos that have ever blessed my palate.

On the remote backside of the Guadalupes is Dog Canyon, where the Park has a residence. Such splendid isolation here - maybe saw 3 or 4 people a day. The rocks and fall color from the occasional Maple (yes, Virginia, there are Maples in west Texas!) caught the afternoon light.

This started more loosely and wet than I normally work, and after a day I abandoned it as a failure. Months later I came across it in a discard pile and wondered, hmm… I wonder if? It took off from there. The stream shapes carry the design and made it a keeper. It ended up doing rather well in awards at state and national watercolor exhibitions.
