The artist writes, “This scene was from a trip I took during the spring, flowers were abundant and the late afternoon sun gave a warm ending to a spectacular day. I had captured this painting when I stopped along Coastal Route 1, the atmosphere was becoming hazy from the setting sun and I could still see for miles beyond this little cove dotted with wild flowers. I love to paint distance and remember where I had been just a short time earlier. I especially took a liking to the tree forms and how they were important, almost like guarding the poppies that had taken root on the hillside. Remembering what I felt, the air was soothing and the ocean was relatively calm, but most important, the colors of the poppies next to the coast gave a wonderful palette of paint to render.”
