In discussing this painting, the artist wrote: “High deserts in the summer offer ample cool at night to appreciate the sun, sufficient heat in the day to find blissful perfection in the shade, and not too much of either at any time of day to make riding unpleasant enough to miss the amazing scenery that is everywhere around. From the clouds to the sagebrush and even the sandy soil, this is God’s country.”
