View from Fork & Farm, Stanford

This original Overberg landscape oil painting captures the precise moment the late afternoon sun hit the water tank at the Fork & Farm Restaurant on a farm near Stanford. I remember standing there with my easel, completely captivated by how the light transformed such a simple, functional object into something shimmering and beautiful against the Kleinriviers mountains.

I painted this en plein air, working quickly to catch that fleeting, gentle Overberg light before it slipped away. The painting is is about the quiet, atmospheric stillness of the valley that I find so grounding. I hope it brings that same sense of calm to your space.
