Mount Charleston Indian Paintbrush. 16x20 in acrylic painting on canvas

One baking hot summer's day in Las Vegas, my son Luis drove me to Mount Charleston, where the cool air and light rain were an instant relief from the nearby desert heat.  Wildflowers and grasses danced in the light breeze and the dusty leaves and rocks were cleansed.  The Indian paintbrushes glowed in the clean mountain air against the backdrop of sun bleached plants, pine trees, and majestic mountains. Thick brush strokes and lavish color make these flowers pop. Done in an impressionistic style, full of color and movement, you can almost feel the mountain breeze.  That's magic realism.

 Comes in a contemporary gold frame, ready to hang.

Shipped free within the US.

►ABOUT THE ARTIST◄

Olga V. Walmisley-Santiago, a British artist based in Independence, Oregon, is known for her vibrant acrylic landscape and still life paintings filled with color, movement and detail, and watercolors that dance with reflections and light.  She celebrates the beauty of nature and brings out the “hidden colors” in the depths of a river, the sparkle of a waterfall, or the edge of a leaf.  Her impressionistic paintings create a world of “magic realism” with dream-like colors and uplifting tones.   Olga was born and raised in London, England,, and has strong ties to Spain and Mexico, having lived in London,  Spain, Ohio, and Kentucky before moving to Oregon.   These layers of culture and experience lend her a unique artistic perspective, and a sense of life as a constant exploration and adventure.  As she continues on her exploration of Oregon and beyond, she constantly takes photos, to later recapture some of the essence of a fleeting moment of beauty in a special place.  She highlights the magic of natural beauty with colorful paintings of mountains, rivers, flowers, fields, waterfalls and coastal scenes, and the creatures and plants that live there.
