Along the Turquoise Trail 12"x 9", Oil, Linen on Baltic Birch |
This scene caught my eye many years ago when visiting New Mexico. It is located along the Turquoise Trail just outside of Santa Fe. I fell in love with everything about Russian Olive trees; their structure, their soft gray sage color and the sweet scent with which they perfume the air. This one was simply glorious against the red land and surrounding brush.
