"Live Oak Park' ©


Live Oak Park is in the Sand Canyon area of Canyon Country. What attacted me to this scene was the lit brush and sand off in the distance and the lovely Oak tree on the right. Because of shooting the photograph late at night the upper left corner is washed out, but you can see where I am going with the painting. This painting will be hanging in the upcoming "Chasing Open Spaces" exhibit in October. One last thing, I painted on a linen surface that is new to me, "Old Holland" and it is luxury I have never known before. Simply elegant. If money was not a consideration I think that I would paint on nothing else, ever again.
Oil on Linen, 16" X 20"
