Scorched Hymn

$700.00

ABOUT

Out among the monuments, the desert stripped me open. The red rock didn’t comfort me; it confronted me. In the gorges I felt exposed in a way that was almost physical—my history became louder than my thoughts. This painting holds that moment: a surface built to be rough, like land that bears scars, rising, breaking, settling again. Though inspired by time among the red rocks, the work is not about Utah. It’s about what happens when there’s nowhere to hide and the vastness forces my darker, quieter parts into the light, asking me to stand inside them.
