Echoes Beneath the Stone: Red Hills with Pedernal

$51,490.00   $51,490.00

Echoes Beneath the Stone reimagines Georgia O’Keeffe’s  Red Hills with Pedernal as a living topography of emotion, memory, and timeless reverence. Earth swirls upward in hypnotic spirals of crimson, gold, and ash-grey, echoing geological time and soul-deep transformation. At the center, a fiery arch rises like a sacred wound, while Pedernal looms quietly on the horizon—a spiritual anchor softened in periwinkle mist. Through layered textures and symbolic flow, this piece becomes a meditation on how land remembers us, holds us, and, if painted with devotion, becomes us.

Echoes Beneath the Stone is a conceptual reinterpretation of Georgia O’Keeffe’s  Red Hills with Pedernal , reimagined as a spiritual terrain carved not just by nature’s hands, but by memory, reverence, and inner resonance. In this image, the sweeping hills and dramatic curvature of the earth mirror the interior waves of emotion—the sediment of a life layered over time. Pedernal, O’Keeffe’s sacred mountain, rises once again not merely as a landmark, but as an ancestral witness, a stone sentinel sculpted by longing and solitude.  

The reworked landscape swirls with kinetic rhythm, lifting the static hills of O’Keeffe’s original into a flowing choreography of geological memory. The foreground becomes a spiraling whirlpool of sedimentary veins—strata of crimson, burnt ochre, amber, rose, and slate grey—merging into hypnotic rings like tree rings in time-lapse. This swirl suggests not chaos but evolution—a geological mandala breathing in and out with the rhythm of the land’s own wisdom. It is O’Keeffe’s New Mexico seen through the eye of emotion and metaphysical geometry.  

The central formation—a rock arch, both solid and suspended—emerges like a totem of transformation, halfway between ruin and monument. Its flame-colored base bleeds gently into the undulating valley beneath it, anchoring the composition with raw strength. The arch echoes the body of the earth as torso, wound, and prayer—a structure shaped by endurance and wind, soft curves hardened into timeless bone.  

Pedernal, the mountain O’Keeffe famously claimed would be hers upon death, stands still in the distance—faded, sacred, spectral. Its familiar triangular silhouette sits quietly on the horizon, wrapped in gauze-like hues of periwinkle, shadowed lavender, and pale turquoise. It is not center stage, but its presence is undeniable, anchoring the emotional pull of the landscape with an almost holy humility.  

Color, in this reinterpretation, becomes the voice of time. The vibrant marbling of the lower hills radiates through layered oranges, goldenrods, and mahoganies, speaking to life’s fervent vitality and the sacred persistence of the desert’s soul. These warm hues are not merely pigments; they carry the vibration of heat, the hum of sun-scorched soil, and the memory of all that has lived and dried within the land.  

Cooler tones rise subtly into the sky—a soft ballet of teal, blush-peach, and misty lavender. These tones carry the hush of morning and the ache of dusk, painting a sky that feels deeply internal, like breath after longing. The blue gradient of the upper right—ranging from cyan to deep denim—creates a dome of tranquility and emotional contrast to the saturated terrain below.  

Amidst this natural reverie, ghosted outlines of a human form linger softly across the scene—nearly translucent, their curves mimicking the earth’s. These ephemeral presences do not intrude; they are one with the strata, born of stone and color and sky. They represent O’Keeffe’s lasting imprint on the land and vice versa. There is no separation between woman and hill, between emotion and terrain.  

This composition was built as a tribute to the notion that landscape is not a backdrop but a being. In O’Keeffe’s world, land is body, mountain is soul, color is voice, and line is memory. In  Echoes Beneath the Stone , I’ve carried that belief forward, letting the terrain ripple with consciousness and the horizon stretch like a remembered whisper.  

Georgia once said, “God told me if I painted it enough, I could have it.” Here, that promise unfolds visually—the mountain is no longer just hers in memory, but animated in every swirl and breath of the earth. The red hills do not just hold Pedernal—they dream it, cradle it, and exalt it.
