“Figuring out the value of shadows and how much color to put in the shadow are demands I enjoy as an artist.” -- David Meikle

Utah artist, David W. Meikle’s stylized western landscapes are tightly focused, revealing his graphic design background.  His painting View of Zion Canyon is set at a vertiginous height depicting both the high walls of the canyon and the atmospheric perspective of the purple mountains in the distance.
