Name That Painting

My current favorite subject for painting is classic Tulare County—citrus and mountains, two things I consider to be the best parts of living here.

Today I am asking for a little help. My most current painting is nameless, and I am out of ideas.

Would you like to name this painting for me?

Thanks! (You know it looks better in person, don’t you?)

Here are some ideas that were submitted in response to my emailed newsletter:

Here and There

The Elephant and the Orange

Beyond the Trees

Foothill Bounty

Sierra Oranges

Orange View

Oh Beautiful!

Before 50/50 bars

California’s Peaks and Navels

Spruce Road, East

On a Clear Day

Citrus and the Sierra 

Classic Tulare County

The Best of California

Last minute update: the painting was spoken for, the buyer chose the name, and then she measured her wall. Oops. It won’t fit. It is my fault for not publishing the size, 10×20″. It is now available, $375 (this includes sales tax if you live in California or shipping if you don’t), here on my website, or in all the usual ways such as seeing me in person, calling, emailing, etc.

  1. Way back when I had my first drink of whiskey in those orange groves. I was helping Mike help run the smudge pots … on New Years Eve. The farmer (or was it rancher) invited us in for a New Years Toast … rookie that I was … I sipped my shot glass. Glamorous New Years? No, but it was fun and certainly memorable

    I would name this painting “The Best of California”….

    You know why

    • Anne, thank you for your suggestion, and indeed I do know why! Some of us say “farmer” and some say “rancher”; I say “farmer” because “rancher” goes with cows in my world. But my family was part of some called [Our name]Ranch, raising citrus and avocados, so go figure. . .
