This landscape painting is a coastal scene of the Palos Verdes peninsula in California. It features prominent blue and green colors, suggesting a lush hillside overlooking the Pacific Ocean under a blue sky. In the painting, Palos Verdes is in the foreground and the Pacific Ocean is to the left. In the distance, the viewer can see the beach cities and the hills of Malibu. This is the town where I grew up, and this particular area is not far from the elementary school that I attended.
