A Heartfelt Tribute – Peggy’s Cabin in Dolores, Colorado
To express my heartfelt gratitude for Peggy Lanning’s kindness and the unforgettable days spent in the tranquil setting of Dolores, Colorado, I created Peggy’s Cabin—a painting inspired by the glow and stillness around her riverside retreat. Nestled beside the Dolores River, the cabin is surrounded by the tall pines of the San Juan National Forest, where the air feels clear and timeless.
My sweetheart, who has worked with Peggy for over 20 years, told me that Peggy might not like the heart in the painting, saying something like, “Good luck with her reaction to that.” I smiled and thought, well—it’s already part of the painting, and we’ll just have to wait and see. When I showed Peggy the original, she looked at the image and the first thing she said was, “I love the heart—it shows your love for me!” So much for prejudging! That moment said it all—it confirmed what the painting was really about: friendship, warmth, and heartfelt connection.
I wanted this piece to capture the essence of that experience—the warmth of hospitality, the quiet of the water, and the sun’s late-afternoon glow on the logs. Peggy’s Cabin became a visual thank-you: a celebration of comfort, friendship, and the peaceful spirit of nature.
Painting Gratitude in Fluorescent Color
Using fluorescent acrylics, I crafted Peggy’s Cabin with layers that transition from day to night. In sunlight, the scene glows with rich greens and deep blues; under black light, it becomes vibrant Day-to-Night art, filled with subtle phosphorescent energy. Above the river floats a luminous yellow heart, a recurring symbol in my work—signifying gratitude, peace, and the connections that make life meaningful. The bold lines and vivid colors of Peggy’s Cabin showcase my signature Southwest luminous landscape style, blending emotion and energy through color.
The Harmony of Water and Light
The flowing river at Peggy’s Cabin naturally links it to two of my other works: Mesmerized and Cathedral Moon. While Mesmerized explores the meditative stillness of mountain waters, Cathedral Moon—part of my Top Nine Collection—captures Sedona’s luminous creek under moonlight.
Together, these paintings highlight the reflective power of water—how it captures both light and emotion. Each piece tells its own story, but all share the same message: that beauty resides in movement, reflection, and quiet wonder.
A Place Where Color Meets Calm
As a Sedona artist, I draw endless inspiration from landscapes that evoke emotion. The rhythmic trees, vibrant skies, and glowing reflections in Peggy’s Cabin embody the peaceful balance I strive for in my luminous artwork. The patterned sky, now a signature element of my style, adds a mystical energy and Southwest spirit—encouraging viewers to feel rather than just see the world I depict. It’s a space where color meets calm, time slows down, and the heart finds rest.
Art lights up 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, Peggy’s Cabin exudes tranquility and heartfelt connection. Each edition is hand-signed and printed on museum-quality materials that preserve the vibrant depth of my fluorescent acrylics.
My work is showcased at the Village Gallery and Sedona Artist Market & Gallery, both located in Sedona, AZ—where collectors can enjoy the full glow of my Southwest luminous landscapes in person.
