Sunburst over the Mesas

1977

About the Item

In late spring, the high desert floor is still covered with grass and flowering yuccas. Against this colorful backdrop, the artist has captured a burst of sunlight breaking through the passing showers. It's a moment of exquisite beauty directly illuminating the tabletop hills in the distance. If you’ve ever smelled the sweet air after a desert rain, hang this on your wall as a reminder.
