Shasta River Autumn

Medium: Watercolor, Image Size: 12″h x16″w, 2008.

Many autumns ago, I got up early to go photograph this scene of the Shasta River just north of Yreka, California. I hoped the oak trees would be in full autumn colors, and I wasn’t disappointed. The golden rolling hills and the curving river were nicely punctuated by the vibrant trees. It was a beautiful setting for this painting.
