This monoprint was just placed in a fine collection by Gerald Peters Gallery, Santa Fe:

“. . . McElhinney’s paintings and monotypes subtly convey a sense of the changes wrought by time and human activity. Faint lines surround elements of his compositions. These are traces of rocky outcroppings, vegetation, and in some cases, houses. In White Rock Moonrise, for instance, the ghost of a house can be seen along the side of the river, which snakes through the canyon and reflects the silvery white of moonlight. The outline is not colored in, or rendered in any detail. The house may have existed there, or it could be an artistic embellishment. Either way; his landscapes suggest how the landscape may have looked, as opposed to how it looks now. It’s as though McElhinney is combining two views of the landscape into a confluence of past and present.”
