Old Orange Grove

This orange grove is located in Santiago Oaks Regional Park.  It is in a state of recovery. 

Working on some of the concepts that Thomas Jefferson Kitt had taught a couple of weeks ago was an objective for this painting.  One of the key concepts that I was trying to explore was the idea of establishing and holding onto a notan throughout the painting.

In this picture you can see the gray blue color of the board and how the transparency of the color is showing the characteristics of the board.  I worked to set the lights of the sky and the darks of the orange trees as the shape of the painting.
