Off to California is part of Paula McHugh’s series of paintings inspired by the titles of American and Celtic fiddle tunes and folk songs. This painting depicts four gold miners, one fiddling, and a dog around a campfire at Independence Rock. Off to California is played as a hornpipe in the key of G and shows how fiddle tunes migrated across oceans and land from Ireland to California during the 19th century. In 1848 the territory of California lured only 400 settlers to make the long arduous journey there. But then James Marshall discovered gold at Sutter's Mill and by the next year 90,000 fortune seekers made the journey either by steamships around the horn of South American or overland in covered wagons. The California Gold Rush was on!
