Sara Steele 2015 Calendar: February - Marin Hills

Marin Hills

The painting Marin Hills was done from some sketches I had made in California some time ago. The fragment of Chinese poetry that accompanies it, from the poem Home to Farm No.1 by T'ao Ch'ien, reminds me of my friend Lawrie:
" My instinct: love of mountains.
Chance mistake: fall into world's net.
One fall costs thirty years. . . "
