Desert Colors.
\nSunset in the Southwest.
\nRed Rock Canyons.<\/p>\n
We conjure up images of red and orange, copper and gold when we hear these words…<\/p>\n
But if you've never experienced the Southwest in person, the realities of the colors here are pretty amazing when you see them in person.<\/p>\n
As I flew into Las Vegas Sunday late afternoon, I was able to snap several photos through the airplane window. I wanted to share this one with you because it has a color that we often forget when we think of these Southwest colors – deep vivid turquoise!<\/p>\n
This is an aerial photo of one of the "fingers" of Lake Mead. What makes this so striking I think, is the natural white outline of the deep turquoise water, caused by the rise and fall of the water on the red rocks.<\/p>\n
It has me re-thinking my own personal palette of Southwest colors, as I see how the gold, orange, copper and bone colors play off of the complimentary aqua, turquoise and teal.<\/p>\n
I take reference photos wherever I go, never knowing when an image will spark creativity. Now I am itching to take a road trip through the 4-Corners area. It has been a long time since I went to Sedona and the Grand Canyon.<\/p>\n
In the meantime I'll have fun revisiting all of our Southwest themed fabrics at eQuilter!<\/p>\n
