About the Item
A fresh spring green meadow is dotted with blue bachelor buttons, buttercups and a profusion of prancing white daisies. An abundance of wildflowers in an array of pastels scatter across the field. This naturalistic oil painting evokes the gentleness of nature, the calming effect of a gaze at the butterflies hovering over the petals. A hummingbird darting among the blossoms or bumblebees buzzing about. The uneven low rock wall lines a path which takes us farther into the wild meadow for a closer look at the flowers and the wood beyond. Doctors often suggest that anxious patients take walks in nature to soothe their fraying nerves. Here is a painting that substitutes for that walk.
This serene painting by fine artist Carole Garland is a reminder to her of her youth visiting her cousins on a farm in Northern Wisconsin. They would ramble through the meadow exploring and looking for wild raspberries for homemade jam or wildflowers for the kitchen table. Garland brings a gentle brush and muted
Palette sprinkled with glowing colors to this calming work.
The 30"x40" Oil Painting on a Wood Panel is wired for easy hanging. The 2-inch deep natural wood sides can serve as a frame.
Workshops with fine art California landscape painters David Gallup, former vice-president of the California Art Club; Frank Serrano; Jeff Horn; Calvin Liang, and others grounded her in classical painting traditions at the same time encouraging experimentation. Carole Garland has shown in numerous Southern California venues and is in art collections throughout Southern California and the United States.

The Orange Wall of San Miguel #2
By Carole Garland
Located in Palm Desert, CA
A quiet street of San Miguel de Allende in Mexico is the subject of this painting by Carole Garland. An elderly woman cautiously makes her way along a narrow path using a tree to lend support. The orange wall provides much needed shade in the afternoon heat. Light seeps through the branches of a colorful bougainvillea patterning the orange bulwark.
Artist Carole Garland who studied art in both San Miguel de Allende and Mexico City shares her appreciation of the simplicity of this quiet backstreet in a Mexican town. A special moment in time is brought to life. Garland uses the scumbling technique and a paint laden palette knife to achieve texture and depth in the leaves, the branches and the rough pavement of the street.
This oil on wood panel is 16"x20" and its natural wood sides serve as a frame. The painting is wired for easy hanging. This is a stand-alone artwork but was conceived as a companion piece to Orange Wall of San Miguel #1. Together they are 16"x 40".
Artist Carole Garland has appeared in numerous venues throughout Southern California, including several juried California Art Club exhibits and individual shows at TAG Gallery in Los Angeles. Her work has recently appeared at the West Los Angeles College Art Gallery; the Rose Cafe, Venice; Topanga Canyon Art...
