"Backyard Jumble, McCloud, California"


"Backyard Jumble, McCloud, California" - Oil - 24" x 24"

"This rickety shed is set among the litter so typical of the charmingly trashy-chic community of McCloud, California. The small-town atmosphere and spectacular views of Mt. Shasta nullify any need for conformity to standards applied elsewhere. Once a rough-and-ready lumber town, it is now a get-away community for those from the Bay area or southern California. Artists who visit are grateful that it maintains this character for it is infinitely more interesting than planned and rigidly supervised resorts." --- SFG

"McCloud, First Snow on Shasta"


"McCloud, First Snow on Shasta" - Oil - 8" x 10" - $300

"An unexpected snow storm covered Mt. Shasta in early November and gave a preview of the upcoming glory that visits its slopes yearly. The view is especially breathtaking from the charming town of McCloud. Its just a few minutes off Interstate 5 and well worth a detour." --- SFG

"November in McCloud"



"November in McCloud" - Oil - 11" x 14" - $400


"A cool autumn day rendered this view of an alley in the charming town of McCloud, California. The glowing light set off this delicate color harmony that enhanced the fall colors. There are countless subjects for painters along the alley way such as old garages, tool sheds, wood sheds or wood piles, varied fencing, trash cans, and a delightful jumble of varied shapes and objects." --- SFG



"Mill and Mountain"



"Mill and Mountain" - Oil - 11" x 14" - $400


"The early 20th century lumber town of McCloud in northern California sits below Mt. Shasta. The picturesque scene here is of the old mill on the east side of town and was bathed in early autumn light. This is another of a series of paintings done in the area in November 2008." --- SFG

"McCloud Power Source"


"McCloud Power Source" - Oil - 11" x 14" - $400

"On this corner in McCloud, California, sit two churches dating back in this old lumber town. The Catholic church, built of logs, faces the viewer and the Presbyterian church is the white building to the right of it. I couldn't help noting the prominent power lines, the other power source for this charming town." --- SFG

"Conversation in the Alley"


"Conversation in the Alley" - Oil - 11" x 14" - $400

"McCloud is a small lumber town near Mt. Shasta in beautiful northern California. People often forget this part of California, but that's the way people in McCloud like it. Since the mill has closed, McCloud has become a hideaway for city dwellers who enjoy small town history and friendliness. Since the garages are often located on the alleys, friends meet and catch up there." --- SFG
