Deer Creek Road

Description

A barbed wire fence, a dry golden hill, a couple of oaks standing where they've always stood. That's Deer Creek Road in summer and this watercolor canvas print gets it exactly right. The palette is all warm blush and dusty gold, the kind of washed-out afternoon light that settles over the Palo Alto foothills when the heat has been building for weeks and the hills have gone fully dry. The oaks hold their dark green against all that pale warmth and the barbed wire fence runs across the foreground without apology, a working landscape detail that keeps the whole thing honest. The brushwork is relaxed and unhurried, matching the mood of a road that has no particular reason to be in a hurry either. The matte canvas finish suits the soft, sun-bleached palette perfectly. Gallery-stretched on a slim 1.25" pine frame and ready to hang out of the box, it's for anyone who has driven or ridden that road in August and understood, without needing it explained, why people choose to live within sight of hills like these.
