I've painted this California scene quite a few times.  Clouds darkened the hills on this day and the contrast caught my attention.  I did a small sketch and then painted this larger work in my studio from the sketch.  If I remember correctly, I was alone that day, but a couple of watercolorists who were strangers to me, joined up and painted along side.  Plein air painters meet a lot of nice people.       Mike
