Tucked in the dry grasslands of southeastern Arizona are the Chiricahua Mountains. This impressive stretch of rock formations is home to scenic hiking trails, diverse fauna and flora, and breathtaking views. Through Chiricahua Creek, Pabst attempts to capture the magic of this place.

The artist paints pinnacle rock formations that peek through the trees. In the distance, the Chiricahua Mountains stand guard as if watching over this magical stretch of forest.  A babbling stream snakes through the forest, washing over smooth rocks as it runs its course.

Pabst conjures every element of this location with striking detail. Soft yet vibrant hues fill the canvas with pure energy that’s hard to miss, resulting in a stunning masterpiece.  Chiricahua Creek will give viewers a distinct sense of comfort and joy.
