EXTREME BEAUTY

How can you not be moved by the beauty in northern New Mexico? As I drive through the hills and see the mountains covered with snow, emotion wells up in me threatening to overflow. The light here does amazing things. One night as the sun set to the West, three vertical rainbows shot down to strike the earth in Santa Fe.

It is almost too beautiful to paint, or to photograph. There is a rawness to it. It strikes to the bone, to the marrow and reveals all.
