NANETTE BIERS WINTER LIGHT AT SILVEIRA RANCH
8” x 10” — Oil $800
Living in Marin County, CA, one gets used to the annual color shifts of the land from the vibrant green hills of winter to the golden wheat color of early summer, and finally to the dullish brown of September. Every year I’m impatient for the color to shift back from brown to green, and when it finally does, I’m out there a lot with my easel and camera, capturing as much as I can with both. I drive by the ranch in this painting all the time. It sits alongside the 101 freeway corridor, so when the cows are out, and the grass is green, I have a field day…literally!!
