Cottam Meadow


Stepping back in time, the third square foot of Los Padres NF that I painted was from a hike in Blue Canyon back in February of 2012.  Seems to me that day was an absurdly pleasant one for hiking the back country. This particular piece is part of the meadow that Cottam Camp rests beside and marks the meeting of Blue Canyon with Forbush Canyon.  A lone fence post stands in the southeast corner, presumably a remnant from when homesteading was encouraged within the Forest Reserve.  The painting was completed January 27th, 2013.
