Acquired by the gallery directly from the artist UNFRAMED: 30" x 40" FRAMED: 36.5" x 46.5" x .5" Artist Statement "The watershed for Mission San Juan Capistrano remains mainly undeveloped and offers an uncommon view of the native beauty of the Southern California coastal range. Sycamore groves studding the landscape offer a golden touch to the arid landscape; a harmony of land and color." — Ray Roberts

Acquired by the gallery directly from the artist UNFRAMED: 18" x 24" FRAMED: 24.5" x 30.5" x 1" Artist Statement "This scene was inspired by a trip to Tejon Ranch nearly 10 years ago with a small group of artists from the California Art Club. The golden color offers a different take on “California gold’ and is very much like the the foothill scenery near my home in Angels Camp." — Ray Roberts

Add to that, the changing light throughout the day and the marine layer coming and going, made options even greater. I have always been attracted to waterways when scouting for paintings. This scene overlooking the Ventura River deeply spoke to me as a big fan of the geology and plant life of the Ojai Valley." — Ray Roberts

An early rain when the fall color is at it’s peak is always a time to ones easel ready to catch that moment before the leaves drop and the water more than trickle." — Ray Roberts
