Shaped by water, wind, and time, "Needles and Potholes" depicts the towering sandstone spires of the Needles District in Bears Ears. I arrived the day after heavy rains, when the potholes were filled with water, reflecting the bluebird sky in brilliant flashes across the desert floor. Prickly pear cactus seemed to thrive along the lower rock ridges, nourished by the moisture captured in the stone. Even in this seemingly harsh landscape, the land holds not only memory, but also water, nourishment, and life.
This piece is part of my solo show "Landscape Holds Memory" on exhibit November 13, 2026 to January 8, 2027 at the Sears Art Museum Eccles Grand Foyer Gallery in St. George Utah.
Notes about Sales from this Collection:
- All art must stay up at the exhibition through January 8th, 2027, even if it is sold.
- The artwork of this collection is available for sales via my website.
- Shipping is estimated as a 15% additional price at check-out. This does not really cover all shipping, but it covers some. Prices for shipping have skyrocketed due to exhorbitant fuel costs. If for any reason shipping costs less than the 15%, I'll get the difference back to you.
- 20% of all sales from this collection will be donated to the Bluff Community Foundation. Recent severe flooding has devistated the community of Bluff who were so kind in hosting me for my residency and I want to help.
