This little painting was a loser because it wasn’t good enough for anyone to part with his hard-earned dollars, despite the fact that my works sells for prices that won’t scare anyone.
It is titled “Tulare County’s Best”, and although it shows what I believe to be the best that our rural Central California county offers, it wasn’t my best work.
It was my best plein air work at the time, because I was new to that style of painting.
But plein air painting isn’t my best work.
Shut up about “best”!
I repainted it, and here it is, now deserving of its title.
Tulare County’s Best, 8×10″, oil on wrapped canvas, $125
OF COURSE IT LOOKS BETTER IN PERSON.
