Cabrillo Point San Diego Painting- For Sale
A nice day at Cabrillo Point, looking out over the Pacific.
San Diego Plein Air
This painting required some touching up in the studio afterwards. The horizon line was bugging me, so I fixed that. My wet painting carrier also gouged off a strip of paint on the left side, which I knew was going to happen but I didn’t get around to fixing it until it had already dried, so I just tried to match the color.
This is from a series of night and twilight paintings I did in Hillcrest and University Heights earlier in the year. This vacant lot once was home to a BevMo, which burned down. There’s a construction sign with an elevation drawing of a new building, so I guess something new is coming soon in this spot.
Sold, but here’s a link to other San Diego paintings in my Etsy shop.
Nevada Desert Painting- For Sale
I tagged along to a software conference (Splunk) to paint in the Nevada desert outside Las Vegas.
I got turned around when headed to Red Rocks.
Here’s the desert from where I wound up when I got lost. No red rocks here, but the blue mountains were very pretty. I was on the exact opposite side of the city from where I wanted to be- but still on the same street!
Balboa Park Landscape- for sale
Morning in Balboa Park, San Diego.
Fog in the City- For Sale
A scene of fog out the front window.
I started this 4×4 painting last winter, but it got messed up and didn’t dry fast enough, so I did another version in purple.
The 4×4 went into a stack of unfinished work. I found it the the other day and it seemed like a fun project to finish it.

A sunny day on the beach in Ocean Beach, San Diego, California.

Autumn Landscape, San Diego, California- for sale
A morning walk in the trails in Balboa Park, San Diego, with the fog turning to lemonade over Golden Hill.
San Diego Nocturne –For sale
This is an older plein aire nocturne from last winter, when I did several night paintings. I never got around to publishing this one because the combination of the dark colors and the shininess led to flash glare, wrong colors, and sadness. Here’s my heroic effort to finally photograph this piece.
Autumn Leaves, San Diego- For sale
Eucalyptus trees washed with gold in morning light, San Diego. I like to walk here in the morning, with different vistas of meadow and forest opening up.

From last year, I think. These garages were down the hill from my old place, and I love the way they slump.

Quonset Hut and Palm Trees Painting – Buy now
We stopped in an industrial area. I’m not sure where we were- somewhere between LA and Santa Barbara. It was a little town with a palm-lined main street. I liked the quonset hut a lot.
I went to preschool in one- a quonset hut I mean. It was on Quantico- a military base in Virginia near Washington DC.
Red Rocks Painting – For sale
This is the 3rd of 3 plein air paintings from Red Rocks, in the desert outside Las Vegas, Nevada. Those rocks really are red!
