"Loleta View" oil painting by Andrew Daniel

 "Loleta View" oil painting on wood panel
6" x 10" (15cm x 25cm) by Andrew Daniel
available in my online shop

It's not hard to find a beautiful vantage point to paint from in Loleta California. The landscape is so expansive and the colors of the fields and mountains so harmonious, the problem is often, how do I choose what beauty to fit in and what to leave out! By focusing on these foreground trees, this painting has a sense of depth in that the distant farm buildings show up as tiny dots comparatively.

  1. It's nice to see your view of Loleta Andrew. I like how my eye moves through this landscape. Hope to see more Loleta paintings. Jim

    1. Thank you Jim. I'm hoping to finish the Lake Loleta piece soon. Then I will have to find some new vantage to tackle!
