Music: Dreams of Alwyn
(Isle of Innisfree)
|
This painting of Mount Tamalpais was from a view of the mountan while coming across the Richmond San Rafael Bridge. It was jury selected and hung in the Marin County Fair, 1994. It was the first and last time I entered a painting in the fair.
Someone said beginner's luck. It hangs on my living room wall.
Music: Dreams of Alwyn (Isle of Innisfree) |
Mount TamalpaisIt was a cold day Most of the landscape was gray But the water was bright As if lit by a mysterious light The mountain itself was very dark It is all part of a national park I have heard that the Indians said You could see a sleeping woman resting her head There is a beautiful view from the peak A view that many people seek Every summer they stage the mountain play Not far is a camp where campers stay People come for walks and hikes Many of the trails allow mountain bikes You can rent a room at the Mountain Inn You have to carry your stuff and hike in Keep an eye out for mountain lions and rattle snakes But also for beautiful views and hidden lakes On the other side is the Pacific Ocean view Often the color is a soothing pale blue |
