The Grand Canyon by Thomas Kinkade ~ Southwest Series - Published January, 2004 - When the Kinkade family set out to discover the American Southwest, we did it in style - in an oversized RV equipped to be a rolling art studio. We camped (quite comfortably, I'm somewhat ashamed to admit!) throughout the region, hiking and exploring some of God's grandest scenery. As a painter, I was struck by quality of light in the Southwest, the stunning clarity of the desert air.

It has long been my ambition to paint the Grand Canyon, truly a place where mortal man stands on the edge of eternity. The basalt rock that borders the Colorado River dates to the very dawn of time.

I found it almost impossible to convey the extraordinary depth of the canyon. I created depth through the drama of the foreground cliffs, accentuated by repeating forms in the distance.

The ever-changing moods of the canyon surprised me, as clouds swept over the canyon. The sun alternately brings formations into sharp focus, and then casts them into shade. As I painted, a burst of sunlight struck the foreground cliff; I worked hurriedly to render the dramatic effect.

My "Grand Canyon" captures a fleeting moment in eternity, one of the many expressions that passes over this sculpture from the hand of God. - Thomas Kinkade

Key Points

1. THE GRAND CANYON, the 3rd release in the Southwest Series, is an indelible memory of Thom’s, captured to paint.

2. Taking its cues from nature, the look of the Grand Canyon changes hourly. Here, whispy clouds cast the intricate carving of the canyon features into sharp relief.

Distinguished framing, specifically selected to complement the Plein Air style of painting, is part of this special launch of never before seen Plein Air canvases. Of course, if you prefer to choose your own frame, an unframed version is always available.
