Having had our morning hike cut short by the searing heat had one big advantage... it gave us some much needed time to browse Sedona's Fine art galleries right after they opened in the morning and before they were too crowded with other tourists.
CC Gallery Hopping at Tlacapaque
The entire city is dotted with far more Fine Arts and Crafts Galleries than we had time to see on this trip, but of those we did visit, our favorites were:
The Rowe Gallery
Located in the Tlacapaque Fine Art Craft Village has some wonderful western and plein air art on display

Exposures International Gallery of Fine Art
Exposures International Gallery of Fine Art is one of the largest fine art galleries in the world. It has an impressive 20,000 square feet of art display that includes every style from classical to contemporary including amazing bronze and stone sculptures, original oil and acrylic paintings, fine art jewelry, and an array of glass art.

It is hard to choose a personal favorite from the over 10,000 pieces of art in this gallery, but if we had to pick our personal favorites it would probably be one of the whimsical mobile wind sculptures which line the outside of the gallery's courtyard and entrance.
