"Winter's Light" © Santa Clara Riverbed


Hundreds of people whiz past this view on McBean Parkway everyday.  While Christmas shopping I whizzed by, slammed on the brakes, found a nearby parking lot and walked back to the spot, stunned at the sunlight bouncing here and there in the riverbed.  I knew I had to paint it and finally have had the time after the holiday commissions and celebrations.  My wish for everyone is a wonderful holiday and the most important thing of all, good health next year and always.

Lovely... The way you caught the light on that yellow bush (is it rabbit brush... chamisa??) up front. Great light and shadows...
