The Hidden Treasures of Richmond 2007

I would have never imagined driving along River road in Richmond and coming upon wildflower trails.
This painting was quickly painted in oil and I did another lovely watercolour painting.
We always enjoy visiting in Spring those trails again and what a treasure; every year many more beautiful flowers growing wild.

Love looking at your blog. Your art is very inspiring :)....We don't get to the west coast often, but it truly is a beautiful place!

I like the looseness and depth of this impressionistic painting - flowers are wonderful, aren't they?
Best wishes, Lesley

Thank you Lesley for your kind comment. I've always enjoyed painting especially in Spring; the flowers do enhance the landscape with all their different shapes and colours.
Bye,
Richardson.

I really like this painting. At first I thought it was pastel until
I read that it was painted in oil.
Loose and painterly.
