Loren Covington was a Utah artist, though never full-time, known for his landscapes of Utah’s National Parks. Angel’s Landing, Zions is an example of Covington’s remarkable depictions of the beloved, momentous landmarks in Utah. Through an impressionist composition, Covington warmly highlights a seminal landmark in Zion’s National Park, Angel’s Landing. Covington seems to use light and shadow to emphasize the grandness of this tremendous rock formation.
