Painting in Florida Canyon with the hot Santa Ana winds blowing.
Santa Ana Winds: When the wind changes in San Diego, we don’t get our usual pleasant and cool sea breezes. Instead, Santa Anas are more like a scorching dry wind right out of hell. So that is the hot and windy conditions of this painting.

Painted on location at the Fortuna wetlands reserve in San Diego. for sale
What a quiet, pretty spot with the occasional passer-by: bird watchers and people pushing small frou frou dogs in baby carriages (a California specialty). I’ll be going back.
Oh, BTW- this weekend is the Mission Federal Art Walk in San Diego. I’ll be in booth 353 near the corner of Columbia and Cedar with new paintings. The event is in the Little Italy neighborhood of downtown San Diego. You can take the train in to the Santa Fe Depot, ride the trolley to the Little Italy station, or it’s convenient to the 5 Freeway. If you’re downtown this weekend, it would be wonderful to see you. The event is from 11-6 Saturday and Sunday, and I’ll be live painting both days.
