Oil on canvas, 36”x48”

I’ve loved Las Vegas for as long as I can remember. long before I got married there. It’s not just the lights or the energy, but the way the city feels like a spark in the middle of emptiness. I lived in Phoenix for over a decade, and have always been drawn to the contrast of living in a bustling area set in the middle of nowhere. Vegas seems even more wild, fast, and alive, yet it’s surrounded by miles of open desert and sky.

This painting captures the view from above. Vegas, as a grid of movement, color, and electricity set against the vast quiet of the desert land. It’s both bright and isolated at the same time.
