"Fennel", 5 x 5, watercolor on clayboard, $80.00This little painting is another in the continuing series, Flowers of Marin.
This wild fennel was living near the Nicasio Reservoir in West Marin and had just opened up!
I love the late Summer/early Fall colors in this area: Lots of russets, ochers and burnt reds...and then this late-blooming fennel that adds a nice bit of chartreuse to the palette.
When these are spent, they turn into these dark silhouettes against the dried grasses. Lovely!
