Monotypes on paper

I love the desert, from the shifting sands of Namibia, to the barren terrain of the Karoo in South Africa and the mystical light of New Mexico.  This series of monotypes are my homage to those wide expanses of parched earth that remain vitally alive. They were created on a trip to Albuquerque + Corrales, New Mexico.
