This pastoral painting captures the serene beauty of Utah, It began en plein air, capturing the essence of the landscape, and was later refined in the studio. Inspired by the great Thomas Moran, I studied his representation of a bridge in one of his works, allowing his mastery of American landscape painting to guide my brush. This artwork reflects both my interpretation of the scenery drawn from the natural world around us and my admiration for American landscape painting, celebrating the harmony of nature while inviting viewers to experience a moment of calm and reflection within this picturesque scene.
