Artwork Description

Singing Hills

0.0 x 0.0

Pastel on Paper, 19.5”w. x 12.5”h., 2003 This was done in Powder Canyon, California. The rains had ended & I felt driven to go up into the hills. As I came up the steep & winding path with the weight of my French easel on my back I saw the flowers buzzing with bees. I heard the leaves of the trees clapping in the wind & the birds singing their mating songs. My heart leaped for joy as the Quaker song "How Can I Keep from Singing?" burst forth in my mind.
