Thomas Kinkade was a great outdoorsman. He grew up in the golden foothills of Northern California's Sierra Nevada Mountains and throughout his life he returned to this picturesque mountain range to paint. Over the course of his prolific career, Thom was deemed an Official Artist of the National Park Service and circled back to one of his favorite themes - nature and the great outdoors. In West Rim, Yosemite , Thom painted Yosemite Valley's El Capitan with its sheer cliffs and fertile valley below. Thom captured the enormity of El Capitan and the vast shadows it cast on the gentle valley at its base. As Bridalveil Falls pours lightly over the cliffs, a trail meanders up the valley below.
- West Rim was part of a series of paintings featuring various views of the Yosemite Valley that Thomas Kinkade created in his early career.
- The view of this painting is looking out at El Capitan.
