The Anasazi, Canyon de Chelly, White House, Arizona
size: 13-1/2” [34] x 9-5/8” [24.5]
This piece is 13-1/2” [34] x 9-5/8” [24.5] and was created starting with a photograph I took in 2008 of the ruins at Canyon de Chelly (de shay) . After completing the back ground scene, the trees were cut in, then the critter at bottom left. I tried to correct mistakes I learned in the Navaho picture but of course more were introduced. It was finished with 5 coats of water based sanding sealer and two coats of satin, wipe-on polyurethane varnish. Finished with a Renaissance wax polish rub. Scalpel cut.
