Pacific Meadow,Plein Air Watercolor

Painted along the San Mateo Coast near bean hollow. I am doing a series of Pacific Coast paintings. The meadow here had a lovely texture created by the wildflowers and the dreaded invasive ice plant. It still has a high horizon as I love it when your eye travels up the painting. Watercolor on Arches 300 lb hot press. This painting screams spring to me. It was one of those sunny days with very little wind.

Really nice Robin! How long did it take you to get to the coast, paint, and get back again? I'm always trying to figure out how far away I can venture and still get back in time to pick up at school!

Beautifully done - especially the way in which you've created the rise and curve in the space with your colors. Your paintings are truly a joy.
