Description
A popular place to visit in the Palm Springs area, is the Thousand Palms Preserve. The Preserve has scenic hiking trails that lead to a natural oasis, with stands of palms and the option of standing on the San Andreas Fault line. There is a measure of serenity there, and a perfect place to picnic in the shade of the palms after a lovely hike or a morning spent painting en plein air. I have painted this preserve from multiple perspectives. It was said to me, "It is the process- not the end result that matters" and while I like the "end result" to be a painting worth selling, I do get a sense of "Anchoring" Joy in the land on which I stand and paint. Because there is a space a painter goes to that is joyful, peaceful, with a sense of connection to the earth and the beauty therein, I get the sense of the "Journey"..
The original is an 6x8 in a simple elegant Plein Air frame. A larger original of the painting process

This is one of those paintings that gets better every time you view it. This beautiful piece is especially relaxing and serene. Of course this beauty earns the highly prized "Lavender Lady". Enjoy it my dear. l.v.f.
