NEWS FROM DIX BAINES STUDIO
“I have been commissioned over the course of a year to capture the seasons at the Gateway Canyon Resort, in particular the Palisade, a dominant geologic formation that overlooks this property. In the spirit of exploration and discovery, this facility is to become a very special place to learn further about the wonders of the planet. It is my hope to record and share the sublime character of this landscape and the full spectrum of human feeling and emotion that it evokes.
In addition to the grandeur, the wonder of this place is the light, particularly the first and last light of the day. It is important to celebrate and depict the untouched look of this land and the range of emotions that it inspires: from lone and dreary, stormy and turbulent, to illuminated and even magical. Sunset is as much a feeling as a visual experience and hence the challenge of capturing the light”. JOURNAL – DIX BAINES
This is what Dix Baines wrote in his journal as he embarked on a yearlong commission at Gateway Canyons, Colorado. An incrediable area 50 miles east of Moab, Utah and just south of Grand Junction, Colorado, Dix’s task was to paint the area in all seasons, weather, and light. He fell in love with this beautiful area and over the course of the year and to the present nearly 50 paintings have been produced, with approximately 40 of them owned by the property.
