Watercolor: Nuts, Fruits, and a River - 20" x 14"



I was intrigued by paintings of the Sacramento River and the farmlands patchwork adjoining it. I looked for a windy river on Google Maps, and found the Feather River, just north of Marysville, California. Then on Google Earth I tipped it up at an angle, then painted from a photo of this view. I had fun, though the result has weaknesses. However, it won the WASH Painting of the Month in June 2024 by one vote -- against only one other submission that month. 240610. Watercolor, 20" x 14"
