About the Item
"Another Day" is an oil painting on panel. A winding California road snakes its way up a hill. Houses are perched at the top overlooking brown scrub and rock dotted with lush green growth and palm trees. In the foreground are homes with garages and porches facing the road. Markings on the road remind drivers to "Keep Clear" at an intersection and warns of a stop ahead before a bridge. Right before the bend you can see the break lights of a car almost lost in shadow.
