“Here, the earth is quietly awakening as the first moments of life creep gently into the valley.”
-- George Gallo

Description
Peter Strauss Ranch, an enchanting regional park in the Santa Monica Mountains, is a source of dreams, visions, and memories for all those who visit the area. George Gallo's painting, Peter Strauss Ranch, First Light, depicts a natural oasis discovered amidst lush greenery. It is interesting to note the darker hues of purple and blue suggest the cool of the early morning light that will soon add its warmth to the entire scene.
