California Picnic, Variations on I Ching Series 1970

"California Picnic" is an oil painting on canvas by Roland Petersen, created in 1970. The artwork depicts a vibrant scene of picnic tables set beneath a large, green tree, with a background of a grassy field and a blue sky. The tables are covered in colorful tablecloths and appear to be laid out in a geometric pattern. The use of bright colors and bold lines creates a sense of dynamism and energy, characteristic of Petersen's work. The piece is a part of the "Variations on I Ching Series," which explores themes of chance, order, and the interconnectedness of nature and human experience.
