Paintings of Canyonlands National Park

Layers upon layers of color can be found in Canyonlands National Park, and Erin Hanson's landscape paintings depict various scenes found in this Utah national park. The Colorado River carved through this land and created red rock buttes, spires, mesas, and fins - and Hanson's vividly hued oil paintings explore the Canyonland vistas from both the northern and southern entrances.

Canyonlands
Cheerful summer clouds glide across a desert blue sky in this painting of Canyonlands National Park, Utah. This national park takes up a huge expanse of land and contains myriad red rock formations, canyon systems, and mesas. This painting was inspired by a hike through the red rock formations in the Needles district. This painting was done on 1-1/2" canvas, with the painting continued around the edge of the canvas. This piece has been framed in a beautiful, hand-carved open impressionist frame.

This painting of Canyonlands National Park was inspired by the southern entrance to the canyon. The spring flowers growing by the cliff's edge, standing up against the vigourous wind, were a beautiful contrast against the desert blue sky and the distant layers of red rock. The brush strokes in this painting are thick and blocky, an impressionistic vision of southern Utah. This painting was created on 1-1/2" deep canvas, with the painting continued around the sides.
