As a photographer, it is one of the reasons he moved to Sedona.
“I hope my images will inspire others to seek out a richer, more personal connection with the natural world, increase everyone’s awareness of the fragile and precious nature of our environment, and the need to protect it so future generations can enjoy the wonder I have been blessed to experience.”

The month of August at Yester Day’s Fine Art Gallery is all about monsoon season in northern Arizona, with a rather august and master oil painter, Roy Swenson, being featured once again for his large canvases that portray clouds in great detail, with dramatic use of light and shadow, all in the beautiful colors of the southwest. Combined with these sky images are the waters of places like Lake Powell, which coexist with solid rock landscapes in wonderful contrast.
Having been an artist all his life, Swenson also was a Navy pilot who may have seen into the heart of cumulous clouds many times on his missions over distant seas. Remembering these scenes throughout his later work as a mechanic, musician, and family man, he has reproduced those magnificent images of clouds, water, and light for his contemporary paintings of Arizona now. Art lovers will enjoy and find inspiration from Swenson’s paintings of clouds in an otherwise chaotic world. Yester Day’s Fine Art Gallery is located in the lower Jerome art district, at 509 Main Street.
