Last One Up – SOLD

A little more history on ‘Last One Up’  – I ran, literally, up and down the South Kaibab Trail at the Grand Canyon – sticking to the canyon wall when necessary and crouching under rock ledges…waiting…for this painting that was already in my minds eye. The loyal, sturdy mules who are born into a life of doing endless trips packing gear and people – from top of the canyon to bottom and back again – day after day – amaze me.
