200 Miles to Los Angeles

David Michael Hinnebusch’s 2009 artwork, 200 Miles to Los Angeles, embodies elements of Neo-expressionism, showcasing bold, emotive brushwork and vivid colors. Created in Santa Monica, California, this piece reflects a dynamic landscape theme, capturing a sense of distance and place suggested by the title.
