http://kathleengoodwin.net/Kathleen_Goodwin/Paintings/Pages/Southwest_Paintings.html The starkness of deserts and also the Southwest has always attracted me. They both have an uncluttered elegant beauty in environments which keep you alert as danger is a careless decision away. I am in awe of the scale of the Grand Canyon: the colors, the feeling of freedom it evokes and the way it brings people to its own terms. I love the shapes and various levels of the earth it reveals. The longer I spend down the Canyon the more I feel it has to offer in terms of beauty, spiritual enrichment and physical enjoyment. Sometimes I have found the only way I could attempt to capture the immense scale was by photographing a series of a particular scene. This has led to a diptych and a four panel painting. http://kathleengoodwin.net/Kathleen_Goodwin/Paintings/Pages/Southwest_Paintings.html#0 2572c881-4c66-4948-b72c-b57a5d6fbc24 http://kathleengoodwin.net/Kathleen_Goodwin/Paintings/Pages/Southwest_Paintings_files/Media/N-Murphy%27s%20Butte%20%281%29/thumb.jpg http://kathleengoodwin.net/Kathleen_Goodwin/Paintings/Pages/Southwest_Paintings_files/Media/N-Murphy%27s%20Butte%20%281%29/micro.jpg http://kathleengoodwin.net/Kathleen_Goodwin/Paintings/Pages/Southwest_Paintings_files/Media/N-Murphy%27s%20Butte%20%281%29/mip.jpg <div style="padding: 0px;
