About the Item
It is late afternoon in the rugged Santa Monica Mountains of Southern California as the sun is setting. Long shadows are cast - the chaparral, sagebrush and manzanita catch the glint of late light. The mountain ridge lines recede in the hazy glow of slanting luminosity.
Artist Carole Garland spent years hiking and painting plein air in the Santa Monica Mountains and brings her delight, her awe and experience to the canvas. The sensitive rendering of this mountain pass in the late afternoon captures a moment typical to this urban oasis.
"The Santa Monicas" oil painting on canvas is 18"x24" and with the frame, it measures 23 1/2" x 29 1/2". The painting is wired for easy hanging.
Carole Garland graduated from Knox College, Galesburg, Ill.; and also studied painting at the Art Institute of Chicago and the University of the Americas, Mexico City. She studied landscape painting with fine artists and plein air painters Frank Serrano, Jeff Horn, Calvin Liang and David Gallup who grounded her in traditional academic painting while encouraging experimentation.
Garland has shown in numerous galleries and museums in Southern California and is in art collections throughout the U.S.

The artist Carole Garland conveys the childlike wonder and awe she feels as she gazes down at a stream in the woods. The rocks are solid and still as the light begins to fade and different shadows appear. Garland attempts to interpret in her work the calm and serenity evoked by nature. There is a spiritual aspect to her embrace of the natural world.

Venice Beach
By Carole Garland
Located in Palm Desert, CA
Depicts Carole Garland reveling in a hot summer day at the Venice Beach. Colorful beach umbrellas shield the timid from the burning sun while sunbathers bask in the searing heat. Yellow and blue ribbons floating on the wind celebrate Venice’s chaos and its whimsy.
To focus the figure of a preteen who stands sentinel, Garland fades out the foreground sunbather on right and obfuscates the crouching man on left. The artist leads us to the groups of mysterious standing and sitting figures in the shadows and beyond. Garland’s collection of figurative work speaks to a contemporary sensibility in her approach to painting, while expressing a curiosity about the human form and an irrepressible concern for the human spirit.
Carole Garland graduated from Knox College, Galesburg, Ill., studied at the Chicago Art Institute and the University of the Americas in Mexico City. She has worked privately with artists Keith Finch and Ron Pekar, taken numerous workshops and was mentored by David Gallup...
