The “Coolest” Artworks Around

With the dog days of summer upon us, there’s no denying—it’s hot out there. With temperatures averaging 100+ degrees in the Valley of the Sun, beat the heat with some of the “coolest” artworks from the PhxArt collection, including images of snowy landscapes and misty lakes, ocean waves and cooling waterfalls, placid pools and frosty winter light. They’re all here to take you far, far away from these sweltering summer days in the desert.
