About the Item
Artist Comments
A colorful view of the rolling foothills of Mt. Diablo in the San Francisco Bay Area. "I enjoy painting at this location for the expanse of interesting hill formations as well as for the lovely copse of trees in the mid-ground," says artist Catherine McCargar, "all with their purple shadows that I often feature in my landscape paintings." Catherine captured the characteristic golden hills of the area, paying close attention to the lighting effects of the swift-moving fog overhead.
About the Artist
Impressionist Catherine McCargar expresses her deep admiration of nature through landscape paintings of Northern California. While she is well-versed in a range of media, her preferred medium for painting is watercolor. The fluidity of the paint allows her to capture the muted undertones and the fleeting light found in the natural world. While the backgrounds of her paintings are impressionistic, the foregrounds of her paintings are often highly detailed, showcasing her technical mastery over her medium.
