This painting is Cache Valley artist Harrison Groutage’s love letter to the land surrounding his Smithfield, Utah home. He offers a stunning, panoramic vista of the green hills, river, and trees, which make up this part of the valley. Viewers are encouraged to pause and consider the cultural significance of place: the idea that we do not just inhabit the land, we share a bond with it.
