[It's about the art] Summer Day

"Summer Day" 11x14

I did this painting in the middle of the day sheltered under a row of Eucalyptus trees. I don't usually paint when the sun is overhead - it's hard to create a good painting when there aren't any shadows. But this view of the hills and the receding hay bales was too good to pass up.
