"Poetic Mission", 14x11, oil on linen

I painted this a few months ago but pulled it out yesterday and re-worked a couple passages. The painting is quite lovely in person; the photo does not do it justice.

If you are unfamiliar with the beautiful Capistrano Mission in San Juan Capistrano , California, this old Spanish mission is a site where the swallows return annually to migrate in March, on St. Joseph's feast day. Be sure to visit the mission, (regardless of your religion), as it is a place of unbelievable beauty and serenity!
