Descanso Gardens View

This is a long view of the Koi Pond in Descanso Gardens. The task for me here was to simplify all the many elements in the scene from the deep swimming fish to the surface reflections of trees upon the waters to the distant trees and grounds peering from beyond. A challenging composition, this painting went through many transformations but it was heavenly being there.
