"This is one of several acrylic and oil subjects for my woodblock print of the Grand Canyon, mostly created on site in 2004, and reworked in 2010 for an exhibition at Scholten Japanese Art. You can see in side by side comparison that it’s very close to the final woodblock print, through the print is not a copy of the oil painting but rather an amalgam of the oil and other studies. It was a surprisingly cloudy time when I visited and I wanted to reflect that in this study and the final print." Binnie, May 26, 2021
