Autumn and Impressionism in Southern California
Who says LA doesn’t have seasons? Autumn is when our oak woodland and chaparral plant communities adapt to natural drought cycles and prepare for winter growth. Migrating birds head southward along the Pacific Flyway, molting into their feathery fall fashions as they establish winter territories and feed on autumn seeds. Native plants put the rust in rustic as they copper and bronze into modest shades of amber, umber, and golden dormancy.
Join us for a guided walk of Rosemont Preserve, where we’ll identify several ways that native plants and animals signal seasonal change. Come for the soft warm auburns, stay for the deep rich ochres, and learn to discern a number of other sun-scented fall colors that inspired local Impressionist painters like Willam Wendt, Granville Redmond, and Anna Althea Hills. Samples from these artists and more will be displayed. Tour will led by Friends of Rosemont Preserve, Jacob Lang and Theodore Lee.
