Vadasz Barn


This is an oil painting I did during the Sonoma Plein Air Festival May 18-23. The misty atmosphere and the geography of this wine country, just north of San Francisco, were quite different from what I was used to painting in the desert southwest. My intention with this painting was to convey a sense of the character of this rural country side, with its rolling, grass covered hills, ubitquitous oak trees and hazy late afternoon light.

Really like the contrasts in this one. And the angle on the barn sets it off
