To Ocean at Spring Ranch

“673. To Ocean at Spring Ranch” Oil painting by Mariko Irie

The location is Spring Ranch, CA

According to Mendocino Area Park Association: http://mendoparks.org/van-dammeproject-spring-ranch-barns/ The historic Spring Ranch Barns are part of Van Damme State Park and are located in a high open meadow alongside Highway 1 overlooking the Pacific ocean. There are several barns on the property, but the oldest barn is circa 1864. Sheep ranching, butter-making, dairy, butchering are some of the responsibilities carried out at the ranch.

I painted  “351. Sunny day at the Spring Ranch”: http://www.mariko-irie.com/sunnydayspringranch.html before. The size is 30” x 40” in oil.

I love old fences, meadow and ocean. Why not? So I painted “673. To Ocean at Spring Ranch” 6” x 6” in oil. It’s a small painting. But still it’s nice feeling of spring.

I love it so much.

What do you think?

It’s spring: ground is covered fresh green and wild flowers started bloom.
