Court of the Patriarchs Canyon, upper falls, Zion Canyon Utah

Good day;,.... This is an example of the new genre of painting, made possible by technology,... in other words > being able to fly any where on the planet to places humankind might not be able to photograph, because only GOOGLEARTH can put you there = flying. Most compositions for paintings are at human height POV,... now we can see things from a far more dramatic position,... like a cliff climber high on a cliff face looking all around,... close up to high up and far away ! ! !

I have hiked into Court of the Patriarchs canyon from the main road,... the trail ends about 1/2 way in and its bushwackin' deer trails next to the cliff till you get to the end wall and the falls. The south wall I hiked up to its 2000' straight up face, thinking,.. "if any size rock fell off this cliff,... no matter what size,... would penetrate your skull for SURE ? ! ! ! So I did NOT linger there for long, it was very primitive, like no human foot prints, but well used deer trails, whatever lived there was a local animal,.. cougars eat deer, and I was all alone in their territory ? ! ! !

 So again take fotos of everything, rocks, cliffs, colors, plants, trees, cactus flowers, river, pools, sky, clouds, everything, then make a foto file for all the research and start planning out your 1st sketch drawing, and compositions.

I will make a video of the painting process soon ? ! ! !
