Between Bell Rock and Courthouse Butte, there is a favorite place in the wilderness where beauty and peace reside. When I moved to Sedona in 2014, it felt like I was the only person who knew it. Now, the trail is easily found and it is a busy place. I painted this earlier this year in that place and had lots of conversations with the tourists.

I finished it in the studio to fix an area that needed it. Also, when I was leaving the trail, it was quite windy. Some debris landed in the paint, so I fixed those areas too. The joys of Plein air painting are being out there in nature in all of its offerings of beauty and weather. I hope you love it.
