DESERT REDSCAPE 2 (2008) Malerei von Tina Bluefield

Finally I knew that 30 years in Colorado, as spectacular as it is, was enough…
I woke up one morning in December, 2005, looked around and the words came to me, “I’m done here”…
I have been painting my whole life and I had spent a lot of time traveling to the desert to paint so I suspected it was the desert that was calling me…

I got out my map to see where I could live in the desert that would be closer to my family in Southern California and Joshua Tree jumped out at me...so I visited and loved it and 2 and a half months later I was here…

The shapes and colors of the earth’s landscape fascinate me, the mountains, the boulders, the brush that is so dry yet looks so soft, the endless seas of creosote, the sand and rocks that change colors with the sky, indescribable sunrises and sunsets, the intense storms you can see coming from miles away, and of course the outrageous yuccas we call Joshua Trees…how can such an amazing place exist that we call the Mojave Desert?

Daring to paint such wild beauty is daunting, exciting, and intensely fun for me
