I was on the trail at Batiquitos and the birds kept landing low and disappearing into the brush. Over and over. I kept watching them and before I knew it I was looking at everything from about rabbit level.
That is when I saw this. The sage and scrub up close, all that pink and gold tangled together, and that heavy purple sky behind it going on forever.
Nobody looks at a trail from down here. But the birds know something.
I took a photo and painted it later because I was not ready to let that angle go.
Original oil on panel, painted and mounted inside an Altoids tin. About 2.5 × 3.5 inches. Signed on the back. Ships carefully packed.
One of a kind. When it sells, it's gone.
