Palms on the Spectrum
Artist
John Ressler
Medium
Painting - Watercolor On Paper
Description
There are many places around Palm Springs, CA, where one is presented with palm punctuated panoramas against a backdrop of Mt. San Jacinto. Most of the palms are these spindly things whose Latin name is "Washingtonia robusta"--a scientific misnomer if ever there was one. Anyway, I decided to have some fun with a near stereotype...and here it is. There will be other permutations of this but I'm not going to put them all up!

Great work John.

Thank you, Anthony. It's sometimes fun to use every color on the palette tray just to see what happens.

Now you are in my neck of California, John. Well done... Magical and exciting. F//L/V

Thank you. Yep, I kinda like The Desert...but don't really enjoy painting palms, except in silhouette, and doing off-beat stuff with them.
