Plein air landscape artist David Yapp paints scenes of California in oils. Subjects are as diverse as the California landscape itself and include the Sierra Nevada mountains, the oak covered hills and scenic coastline. David uses palette knife and brushes in a style that is reminiscent of impressionism.

Placerville Library Exhibition

Placerville Library — March 2026

An intimate selection of landscapes of El Dorado County, painted in oil, and pen and ink. The paintings reveal distant vistas of canyons and mountains glimpsed through the branches and foliage typical of the Sierra foothills. Alongside the paintings of El Dorado County is a majestic view of Marin county’s iconic landmark, Mount Tamalpais.

I do hope you will drop by and enjoy the paintings!
