Paintings of Arizona

Arizona is home to geological wonders like the Grand Canyon, the Painted Desert, and Sedona - as well as the largest stand of evergreen ponderosa pine trees in the world. The stunning vistas, the variety of colors offered by red rock formations, desert flora, waterways, and more inspire a rich tapestry of art. The brilliantly hued landscape has given rise to incredible art from artists like Beatien Yazz, Jack Van Ryder, Anne Coe, and Erin Hanson.

The last time I visited the Four Corners region of the Colorado Plateau was several years ago. The big, beautiful blue sky was full of white fluffy clouds--the perfect high desert weather. I took photos of Monument Valley from a few miles away, watching the clouds pass shadows over the red rock buttes below. I printed this photo when I returned from my trip, and I have been wanting to paint it ever since. When I paint, I try to recapture what it felt like to actually stand there, my feet sinking into the warm, soft red sand, a breeze ruffling my hair, squinting into the sky, and feeling surrounded by beautiful color 360 degrees around me.

The Grand Canyon is a painter's paradise... every morning and every sunset the canyon looks different. This painting was inspired by an early morning out at Hopi Point. As the clouds moved slowly overhead, the first rays of dawn shot through the cloud layer and illuminated the canyon below in an ever-changing dance of color and light. I used thick, expressive strokes of oil paint to capture the strength and majesty of the vista. "Canyon's First Light" will be on display at The Erin Hanson Gallery for <i><a href="https://www.erinhanson.com/Event/colossalcollection2025" target="_blank">The Colossal Collection</i></a> on August 9th, 2025.

This painting of Arizona saguaros celebrates the vibrant colors of the southwest. The thick, impressionistic brush strokes create a mosaic of color and texture across the canvas, pulling your eye through the painting so that you become immersed in imagination. <b>Did you know…?</b> * The average saguaro has a lifespan of 150 to 175 years. Biologists believe that some may live for over 200 years. * Because of their slow growth, a saguaro often takes 50 to 70 years to grow their first arms. By the time they are 100, they typically have several arms. * The oldest recorded saguaro grew over 40 feet tall and had 52 arms. _____ This painting was exhibited at <i>Erin Hanson: Landscapes of the West </i> solo museum exhibition at the Sears Art Museum in St. George, Utah.

Anyone who has seen a sunset over Monument Valley will never forget it. As the world slowly darkens and the landscape hushes, the sky celebrates the closing of another day with brilliant hues and cloud formations. This painting captures that transient moment in time with thick, impasto brush strokes and expressionistic color. This painting was done on 1-1/2" canvas, with the painting continued around the edges. It has been framed in a gilded and hand-carved floater frame. --- Monument Valley <B>F U N F A C T S</B> Formed during the Permian period (50 million years before dinosaurs roamed the earth), this patch of land once formed part of a seafloor where sediments and sandstone piled up in layers for millions of years. The Valley is now a sacred place for the Navajo, whose mythology holds that these grand spires contain the spirits of Najavo warriors. Monument Valley is found on the Navajo National Reservation. The Valley is also one of the most filmed spots in the history of filmmaking. The valley was hailed "John Wayne country" for appearing in no less than five of his movies. It also served as a backdrop for an iconic scene in Forest Gump. "There are certain places in the world that seem like special effects, they don't seem real," said film historian Scott Eyman. "They're too perfect. And the first time you come here, you see it through John Ford's eyes." (Ford is widely regarded as one of the most important and influential film-makers in history.) -- This painting was a part of the <a href="https://www.erinhanson.com/Event/redrock2018" target=_blank"><i>The Red Rock Show</i></a> in San Diego in 2018. <a href="https://www.erinhanson.com/Portfolio?col=The_Red_Rock_Show_2018" target="_blank"><u>Click here</u></a> to view the other Red Rock paintings.
