Nambe Falls, New Mexico

This watercolor was executed en plein air where after a perilous trek up a rocky path (I have a fear of heights) I managed to perch on a narrow and steep escarpment.  The scene was breathtaking in more ways than one.  After our descent (I was with my sister) we congratulated ourselves on being so daring.  We then hiked up the other side of the stream where Valery fell in the water and lost her hat and almost lost her glasses.  We spent the entire day hiking around on this Indian reservation where the falls are located.
