Malibu Creek Morning

This bucolic portrayal of Malibu Creek, enlightened by the artist’s keen eye for subtle colors, reveals soft hues of gently swaying trees, lush bushes and inviting water.  I love the downstream water’s seeming disappearance into the sun’s reflection, naturally transitioning into the background foliage.  The piece is framed.  The oil painting measures 30" x 24".

Fields of Poppies

Cotty’s landscapes are renowned for their soft colors and textures, never better exemplified than in this delightful oil on canvas board rendering of a gentle field of California poppies.  The majestic tree in the background serves as a perfect focal point for this soothing scene.  I love how the artist has infused soft lavender into the flowers, the bushes and even into the sky for an artistic interpretation of a peaceful meadow.  The painting comes unframed and measures 14” x 18”. 

High Desert Bloom

What a glorious scene!  Cotty has captured the enormity of California’s high desert landscape along with the delicacies of spring’s majestic floral arrays in this dramatic framed 17” x 21” oil on canvas board.  The range of colors employed is breathtaking.

High Desert Joshua

The soft golden hues in this thoughtful oil rendering of the high desert are soothingly charming.  As the same fair colors bless the imposing background mountains with an unearthly quality, surging heavenward and into the gentle blue of the sky, the austere Joshua Trees stand in stark contrast.   What a lovely composition!  The piece is unframed and measures 16” x 20”.
