“Monsoon Mesa” is an 18″ x 12″ oil painting of a New Mexico monsoon. I used to walk alone across a mesa to get home from school. At times I had to walk through dark afternoon monsoon rains.

I had to avoid arrroyos, and watch out for lightening. After the storm the beautiful desert land would bloom with green and little flowers after the rain.<\/p>\n
