Painting the Wildflowers


I just completed a painting of the Wildflowers at a place called Shell Creek, off of Highway 58, East of Santa Margarita, in San Luis Obispo County. A fellow artist and I went there a week ago. The many wildflowers were carpeting the ground, covering it in color. The wildflowers in this spot are Goldfields, Tidytips, and Baby Blue-Eyes. This painting is done with thick strokes of oil paint. As I painted, the colors and the textures of the paint became more interesting to me than any details.
