Late Afternoon, Ojai captures the quiet grandeur of downtown Ojai as the day begins to soften into evening. The long arcade and landmark tower lead the eye toward the Topa Topa Mountains, where fading light and layered clouds create a luminous backdrop to the street below. Sandra’s restrained palette of cool blues, warm ochres, and muted greens gives the scene a sense of depth, history, and calm, while the strong perspective draws the viewer into the heart of the town. More than a streetscape, this is a portrait of Ojai at a particular hour—architectural, atmospheric, and deeply rooted in place. The painting balances the elegance of the historic downtown with the surrounding mountains and changing California light, creating a work that feels both intimate and expansive. 16"x12", unframed.
