A native of California, Gene Kloss lived between Taos, New Mexico, and the Bay Area, making landscapes of both regions. Technically innovative, she developed a technique of painting on an etching plate with brushes and pencils to create subtle tones and gradations of dark in works such as this, featuring the California coast.
