Experience the Majesty of The Call of the Canyon 

When I first visited the Grand Canyon, I was overwhelmed by its grandeur—vast cliffs echoing with color and shadow. “The Call of the Canyon” was born from that experience, a visual echo of the canyon’s voice as light and space collide in brilliant harmony.

I painted this piece after returning from the Canyon to Sedona, inspired by the same photographs that led to its companion, “Morning Light.” Both paintings were born from the photos I captured myself—moments that spoke to me long after the trip ended. While “Morning Light” evokes peace and renewal, “The Call of the Canyon” captures strength and awe—the canyon’s mighty walls singing beneath the sun’s glow.

Each brushstroke reflects motion and emotion intertwined: a river’s reflection meeting crimson stone, a sky burning into gold, and a subtle pulse of light flowing through every curve. The result is an homage to nature’s enduring dialogue between stillness and storm, between echo and silence.

A Companion to “Morning Light” 

Painted during the same creative journey, “The Call of the Canyon” and “Morning Light” form a duet of Grand Canyon perspectives. Their shared spirit lies in the balance between morning’s calm and midday’s brilliance—each illuminating a different side of the same timeless wonder.

Part of My Southwest Luminous Landscape Collection 

Both paintings now reside in Marble Falls, Texas, where a resort owner purchased them together two months after seeing my work. Knowing they hang side by side—one serene, one dynamic—reminds me of how light and energy always find each other.

Explore my Top Nine Collection to see how this luminous style continues through my Sedona landscapes, celebrating the Southwest’s glowing heart and my ongoing artistic journey.

Art illuminates the same part of your brain as

falling in love—it’s an unforgettable feeling.

Collector’s Note 

Available as giclée art prints, canvas gallery wraps, luminous metal prints, and photo plaques, “The Call of the Canyon” brings glowing energy to any wall.
