Description
Itβs one of those gloriously sunny spring days in which there is a little bit of cool, a little bit of warm.
The breeze, which is a bit stronger than we thought it would be when we first stepped outside, is bracing, prompting us to pull our jacket around us a little tighter. But when the breeze dies down, the warm, golden sunlight of an early spring day dances across our face in a moment of incandescent delight.
Welcome to Utah Spring, a landscape of incredible majesty at the foothills of the Wasatch Mountain Range, located at the western edge of the greater Rocky Mountains. It is a place of bigness and space: the fields and meadows of the foothills stretch out in their green lushness of the season; the mountains themselves rise gently up at first, then higher as they reach into the horizon; the sky is grand and open, so that the sweeping clouds overhead provide as much drama and beauty as the landscape beneath.
This is a wild place, a place where there are no shopping malls or parking lots, although there can be farms and ranches dotted through the landscape. This is the type of place that is the setting for Western movies, because even in the 21st century, it retains its sense of remoteness and wilderness.
Utah Spring, the artwork, invites us to step into this world of quiet and grandeur, to stroll through the meadow to the lone, large tree and just listen to the quietness. It is good to get away from the noise and activity of the city, even the small town, and to be in a place where we can focus on the incredible colors around us β the blue of the sky, the emerald green of the fields, the gentle, almost pinkish browns of the hills, interspersed with springβs new growth.
We feel small β not because we are made to feel lesser and useless, as we sometimes feel surrounded by the world of business and commerce and working smarter not harder β but because the world of nature is so very big and beautiful.
