'Summer Evening-Uplands Park'

I painted this piece last week on one of those wonderful
summer evenings, the kind you dream about during
those cool wet days in the winter. Gone are the lush
drifts of blue camas, yellow butter cups and green
spring grasses, all have been replaced with the soft
yellow white grasses and red tinged sedges drying
amongst the rocky outcroppings. While I
painted the heat of the late day sun created
wonderful scents as it warmed the mature grasses
and the dried moss. The seed eating birds are were
very active feasting on the bounty of ripening seeds.
Oil on wood panel 6 x 8.

I can smell the meadow, Jeffrey. Isn't it a wonderful 'job' we have?
As usual, I love your color and brushwork.
