South of Taos, New Mexico, the Rio Grande river winds through some magnificent valleys. This painting is of one, particularly captivating, area where the river meanders off around a colorful corner on its journey through the rest of New Mexico and Texas. This is an Autumn scene of that spot, where the salt cedars and other vegetation were turning colors to their magical reds and oranges, counterbalanced by the greens of the junipers, pinions, and other perennially green desert vegetation.
