Sedona’s Red Rock Roadrunner
Sedona’s Red Rock Roadrunner, affectionately nicknamed “Morgan,” is my vibrant tribute to one of Sedona’s most whimsical landmarks. Created by artists Don Kennell and Lisa Adler, the original steel sculpture greets travelers at the Morgan Road roundabout. My painting celebrates not only their artistry, but also reimagines the roadrunner in glowing fluorescent acrylics. His feathers blaze with electric blues and purples, while the desert trail beneath him points toward Bell Rock, Cathedral Rock, and Castle Rock.
In daylight, the painting hums with saturated colors. But under black light, the original transforms into a glowing 3-D experience: pigments ignite, edges sharpen, and Morgan seems to stride forward off the canvas. Though only the original carries this transformation, reproductions in canvas gallery wraps, luminous metal prints, and giclée art prints preserve its energy and color beautifully.
Morgan is more than a roadrunner. He represents Sedona’s Southwest spirit—playful, quick, and full of personality. As with many of my works, I tucked hidden hearts into the desert forms, quiet invitations for viewers to connect with the land and its stories.
Collectors often choose this piece for spaces that need color, joy, and energy. It pairs naturally with works like Coyote’s Lunar Serenade, which shares its playful tone, while also balancing reverent pieces like Cathedral Moon. Within my “Top Nine,” Morgan stands as the reminder that art can smile as well as glow.
For me, Sedona’s Red Rock Roadrunner is not just a painting—it’s a celebration. A celebration of landmarks, of Kennell and Adler’s artistry, of Sedona’s humor, and of the joy that comes from seeing a roadrunner stride confidently through the desert, carrying with him the spirit of the Southwest.
Clark Sheppard’s work is also featured at the Village Gallery and Sedona Artist Market and Gallery, both located in Sedona, AZ.
