Painting - Oil On Panel
Description
As close to the feeling of Autumn I can have is when the Cottonwood trees turn golden in the fall. The creek running down through the Indian Canyons, outside Palm Springs, is lined with palms, small grape vines here and there, and a few tall cottonwoods. The skirts that form beneath the green fronds of the palm trees, and some wild grasses gives us "Desert Dwellers" the feeling of Fall that most of the country experiences.
This small painting is but part of the whole. I just loved the intimacy of the creek in Autumn..

Your landscapes are a treasure for the eye and soul Maria. I don't think I ever saw this one. I love it. The deep green shadows and aqua colored water are beautifully juxtaposed. So moody and embracing. l/f

You have indeed captured autumn in the desert. I really love the darker, lush colors and lighting in this painting, Maria. The burnt sienna tree trunks that pull my eye into the back of the painting are really terrific. It's always such fun to visit your gallery! like/f
