W8-11 SKYSCAPE 9X11 $250
Zolita Sverdlove was fascinated by the textures and colors of the sky over the California landscape, especially at sunset, or after a storm. Many of her landscapes show a great deal of sky and a smaller portion of land. I call them "skyscapes". her watercolors tend to allow the impressionist flow of color to define the content of the art work, rather than specific lines or strokes.

Sverdlove's impressionist treatment of mountains showed a wide variety of free flowing color. Mount Baldy at 10,000 feet elevation just north of Pasadena provided a ready target. The north view from the water tower at the highest point of South Pasadena provided a clear view of Mt. Baldy, the San Gabriel Mountains, and the San Gabriel Valley. Mt. Baldy was typically covered with snow from January through March.
