Here is a flash back to the Summer of 2024, a lush, wet July filled with desert wild flowers blooming all over the San Luis Valley where Kyle and I have been slowly chipping away at working on our personal sculpture park project. Our property is not open to the public but hopefully one day, we figure out how to make that happen to welcome a few guests here and there. For now, please enjoy a glimpse into a little corner of our 40 acre project.
I took the above photo near walking along the sculpture trail that we've been gradually expanding and adding new art to. The below photo was taken from the top of one of the sand dunes that shield the art installations from being seen from the dirt road near by.
The variety of wild grasses and flowers was particularly lively along the dunes that year.
As the sun began to slowly set, incredible clouds began to take shape and weave around the surrounding Sangre de Cristo Mountains, creating an incredible backdrop for our sculptures.
I only photographed a few of the sculptures as I didn't want to miss
becoming engulfed in the spectacle while frantically running around
snapping photos before it all disappeared.
The clouds themselves looked magnificent.
Artemis was so much fun to look at with the pink and yellow cotton candy hovering behind it.
Walking around our property that evening was one of my all time favorite strolls through the valley floor.
The 'Good Omen' installation really stood out - it is one of my favorite sculptures to take in as I walk the grounds. The trail encircles the feathers so you can catch different vantage points from all over the trail.
Below are a few more fun shots of how the clouds intensified in color and effect.
Here is a little overview of the back of our property before the light disappeared for the evening.
