Description
Monument Valley is on the Navajo Indian reservation in northern
Arizona and part of Utah. It is a wonderful place to visit
with a drive-thru loop and many vistas and viewing areas
to stop and enjoy. The various rock formations have become familiar icons whenever Monument Valley is mentioned. This scene includes the Three Sisters formation along with mountains in the distance and small red buttes that seem dwarfed next to the larger ones on the right side of the painting.
One cannot comprehend the vastness of this area from photographs. Seeing the formations up close certainly makes one realize how insignificant we truly are in comparison. The most famous rock formations are the "mittens" which I have portrayed in another painting titled "Sunrise Stampede". These can be seen for many miles as you drive toward the park in the Four Corners region of Arizona, Utah, Colorado and New Mexico.
Many western movies were made in the tribal park, including
several starring John Wayne.
The entire area is breathtaking and a must see for everyone!
Other paintings in this series include: Monument Valley Artist Point, Monument Valley Raging Storm, Sunrise Stampede, and Monument Valley.
A print of this painting may be ordered without the horses present if you contact me directly.
