Rainbow Hills | Hanksville, Utah
From directly above Hanksville, the desert hillsides reveal something the ground never shows - distinct bands of red, ochre, green and purple running through the same formation, each colour a different mineral deposit laid down in a different geological era.

"The quality of the images was greater than I could have ever hoped for. I am proud to call myself a collector of his work."
Matthew D. ·
The terrain around Hanksville sits on the edge of the San Rafael Swell, where millions of years of sedimentary deposition have stacked different mineral layers on top of each other - iron oxides producing the reds and oranges, chlorite producing greens, manganese producing purples, each layer representing a distinct period in the geological record. At ground level these colours are visible as stripes in the cliff faces. From altitude the full mosaic becomes legible - the hillsides reading as an abstract colour composition that no painter would dare invent, because it would look too artificial.
The wide colour range makes this one of the most versatile images in the collection for interior use - warm and cool tones present simultaneously, the palette working in spaces that need colour without committing to a single dominant hue.
