In this image, Dibble emphasizes the shifting colors in the rock features of Canyonlands National Park. His cubist style reveals how layers of sandstone form the monumental landscape. The work was probably painted in the park’s Needles district, one of the most remote parts of Utah’s least visited national park. Born on the island of Oahu, Dibble spent most of his professional life in Utah as an art professor, where he was one of the state’s earliest Modern painters and a long-time art critic for the Salt Lake Tribune.
