This is my newest painting, which I took to the South Pasadena Public Library today for display at the annual show featuring scenes of South Pasdena. This year, the theme is City of Trees. Although many people are painting historically significant trees, I have grown fond of this group, framing the Arroyo Seco, which we see on our walks in the area. When the theme of “trees” was announced, I knew just what I wanted to paint.

I saw this piece today, Karen, when you came in to enter it. It is really LOVELY!! It displayed so well alongside many beautiful pieces!!
Way to go. It’s a winner!
A Vista in every kind of sense, Karen–from the foreground shadows to the soft and misty hills beyond. No one can evoke the spirit of a tree and the atmosphere that they help create as you do. Good luck with the show.
