"Dalton Canyon Swimming Hole" pastel, 5 x 7 $200

My friend Nancy showed me one of her favorite painting spots--Dalton Canyon on the Pecos River just east of Santa Fe, NM. 
There were so many good spots, it was hard to pick just one.  But here's where I planted myself that morning.  Later that day, we were joined by picnic-ing families enjoying the cool water and the bright sunshine.
