A Teresa Bernard Oil Painting

A desert landscape painting of Utah’s Monument Valley National Park. The valley is a sacred area that is part of the Navajo Nation Reservation.

An original painting depicting Monument Valley National Park in Utah captures the essence of this desert expanse. The red-rock buttes stretch into the distance beneath a vast blue sky, lending the artwork a profound sense of depth. Signed by the artist Teresa Bernard in the lower-left corner, this piece would complement any rustic or Western-themed decor beautifully.

Monument Valley is a landscape painting hand-painted on a traditional stretched canvas with the sides left raw or unpainted. The artwork will need to be mounted in a frame before being put on display. For those who love the finished or traditional look of a frame, this works well. Includes a custom Certificate of Authenticity (COA).

The original canvas painting does not have the copyright watermark ©️ teresabernardart.com.

Artist Comments

Monument Valley in Utah, often referred to as the “Valley of the Rocks,” is recognized as one of the natural wonders of the world and is arguably the most iconic representation of the American Old West. The valley has been a preferred setting for Western films for many years. Its isolated red mesas, dramatic spires, and sandstone buttes, set against a backdrop of a vast, sandy desert, have been captured on film and in photographs numerous times throughout history.

Called Tsé Bii’ Ndzisgaii (Valley of the Rocks) by the Navajo, this famous valley lies in the southern part of Utah near the Arizona border within the Navajo Nation Reservation. When you first approach the area, these rock “monuments” will take your breath away. The eerie rock formations make you feel like you’ve been transported to another planet. It is truly one of the most majestic places on earth.

The first time I visited Monument Valley National Park, I knew right away I’d be doing a painting of this beautiful valley. Indeed, I have created multiple paintings of this location. I also have memories of several paintings I did of this place when I was a young student of art studying art under my dad, a professional oil painting artist. My dad loved painting this location too and produced several oil paintings of it himself. The whereabouts of these paintings remain uncertain after they were sold to art collectors and local businesses in the small town where we lived.
