Truckee River Snowbank - original California landscape oil painting, Tahoe area

Truckee River Snowbank, reflections of trees and willows, original oil painting

"Truckee Snowbank"
12 x 16 inches, original oil painting on canvas


Last winter we had the pleasure of visiting the Tahoe area, and I found this lovely spot along the Truckee River, on the River Road. It was a clear day with a vivid blue sky which reflected beautifully in the clear water of the river, moving slowly through a magical wonderland.  The golden willows contrasted with the cool color of the water and made an idea composition for me.

This painting is available from me, the artist. Please write for more information.

California Golden Hills Original Impressionist Oil Painting Art




"When California Hills Turn Gold"
9 x 12 oil on plein air panel

SOLD, but there are more paintings at karenwinters.com


A blue California sky over golden rolling hills - this contemporary California landscape was painted in the tradition of the early plein air masters. Even 100 years later, the hills still have that Old California look, and I love to paint them.
