This was a quickie. Although done in the studio from a photo, I painted it as I would’ve if I had been on location. It is a scene near Wickenburg, AZ. I spent some time down that way a couple of years ago and did a number of plein air paintings while there.
Quick, sure, brush strokes and heavier paint application makes for a fun little oil painting. Just tried to capture the essence of the evening light which I think I did.
This painting is for sale in my studio.

I love this painting of yours “Another Desert Sunset” I grew up about 50 miles west(I think) , Salome Arizona. I am retired and always planned to return at least for part of the year. Things didn’t turn out the way I planned. I am disabled and spend 24/7 in a bed pretty much now. Well I bought a small Oil Painting Kit and thought that I would try painting. Well preparation for painting and taking it all down when I grew tired was to much. So, I decided to try Digital Painting, No mess, no fuss. Well I had mixed success. I’ve decided to paint my version of this painting of yours. I love the bright colors that you chose. If you have other desert paintings I would like to see them. Thanks
