This original acrylic painting on canvas is 10x10 inches. Two years ago we took the long, long way home from a conference we attended in Colorado. Going north to Yellowstone and then east to Mount Rushmore. Rushmore area had trees and rocky hills but as we continued east we hit badlands national park. Zoom out from the satellite view on the map and you see this snaking white area in the midst of green. The Lakota Native Americans called the place “mako sica” which meant eroded landscape but was translated as badlands. As in –not a fun place to travel with the rugged terrain, extreme temps, and lack of water.
Go figure, now it’s a tourist destination. Maybe it’s a commentary on society today, call someplace dangerous and suddenly it’s appealing. Another place, if you have lots of water, sunscreen, a good hat, and hiking boots can be interesting to explore. And mixed into the landscape are little rodents and bigger beasts, fossils, and flowers.

Materials

Acrylic paint, glossy varnish, gallery-wrapped canvas, and wire so ready for hanging.
