Orange!

According to NASA Earth Observatory, the Namib Desert is thought to be the world's oldest desert. This age, and the accompanying iron oxidation of the sand, has created dunes which range from dull pink to brilliant orange. I found the color simply fascinating.


The dead-looking tree near the center of the painting was just what I wanted. Its shadows seem to dance on the orange dune.
