Before the Rainbow / 16 x 20 / Oil on Canvas hide from trade ARTIST NOTES: The colors inOriginal Oil Seascape Painting of Mendocino, by Liana Steinmetz ARTIST NOTES: Painted in Mendocino just before a storm. You can see the rain approaching on the horizon. I worked quickly, trying to stay ahead of it but the rain came before I finished. I packed up and ran back to my car, a little disappointed. And then I saw it the largest rainbow Ive ever witnessed, stretching across the town and bluffs, impossibly close. I stood there for a long time.
