California impressionist landscape oil painting - Arroyo Seco, Pasadena



Snow on the San Gabriels
(Federal Courthouse with view of the Arroyo Seco)
12 x 16 oil on canvas


The winter storms, which may now be over, often leave rare snowcaps on our local mountains - for a few days. I took advantage of one of these unusual scenes last month. This is a view I have painted before, in the autumn when the sycamores are in full color - and will likely paint again through the years with different weather and seasonal looks.
