French Wheat Field at Sunset
Product Details:
Original Oil by Trijsten Leach
Art Size: 24" x 30"
Framed Size: 30.5" x 36.5”
I painted this view over a dozen times while staying on this farm in the french countryside. Each day provided a new landscape as the light and weather changed. When I wasn't painting we'd spend the evening taking walks through the wheat fields. In this piece the clouds from an earlier rain storm broke and allowed a sliver of light to break through across the darkening landscape.
