Fresh Morning Sun On Antelope Flats
In this painting Kendall shares the hope and renewal of a new day. The welcome belonging, the Creator’s gift for you.
Creator’s gift: I have spent many mornings studying the sunrise and absorbing the Creator's gift of the fresh morning sun, which takes over thirty minutes to receive. This Giclée original painting portrays this gift in one complete painting.
In order to capture the entire experience, I preserved in this painting the sky just as the sun made it come to life while the mountains and the barn were still dark.
The Gift:The sky was full of hope from the morning sun. By the time the sun turned the mountains gold with the morning warmth, the sky had lost its' gift. Just at that time I captured and painted the mountains with all their cool shadows and warm golden light. There was a lone antelope which walked right past me and along the trail behind the barn. As the mountains lost their gift, the sun started to flood across the valley floor; it glimmered off the windows of the barn and lit up the trees and the fence post with its golden glow. In that magical moment, I referenced, and then painted the way they were as the light hit the trees, the barn, the road, and the hills. This instant was the most exciting moment to reference and then paint. I was able to keep and include the hope in the morning sky and the gold burning mountains. I remember and savor this gift.
Feel? Can you feel the light dancing across the field, beginning to light up the earth? Can you feel the moisture from the dew and the crisp new light feeling of the fresh morning sun on Antelope Flats? This is for you, you belong.

Paintings for Mental Health
Research evidence consistently show that nature has a beneficial impact on our mental health.
But just being in nature doesn’t change your mental state. You benefit from nature when you focus on and notice nature. As we focus, notice, and experience nature we begin to connect. Connectedness goes beyond simply having contact with nature. Connection to nature means feeling a close relationship or emotional attachment to natural surroundings. When we have high levels of nature connectedness, we can feel happier, more worthwhile. We feel hope, rejuvenation, life, and energy.
Kendall paints nature in a way that is like being in real nature. Take some time to “walk into his paintings” focus and experience nature there. Take time to feel a close relationship, notice your emotional attachment to what you enjoy and love that is there. Feel the hope, renewal, life and energy that is painted there for you to have.

Paintings NOT photographs
Kendall has found a new powerful way to paint with more detail, realism, and more realistic natural colors than photographs. This also gives the artist the ability to feel and paint the spirit of hope, renewal, energy, and life like never before. Each painting took him about a year to paint.
This next painting is an example of this new painting medium that is easy to see. This is not a place in nature, it is a place in Kendall’s mind and heart that shows, with detailed paint on canvas, a whole day’s hike while gathering inspiration about the “spirit of life” from many places.
