I think the gold and green landscapes of California summers are incredibly beautiful. This landscape is from the East County of San Diego.

Santa Barbara Evening Palms Landscape
Evening light on Santa Barbara’s incredible mountains, seen from a side street off State Street.
I was amazed by the atmospheric light effects on these mountains.
I thought I’d never seen light like this anywhere else, and then we saw the same effect in a Monet painting of the Italian riviera in the Santa Barbara art museum.

Santa Barbara Beach Fog
Tecolote Canyon
I love the grass when it goes this gold color. It is so absolutely beautiful. In Virginia, this color combination was the color of winter- but here in San Diego, it’s the color of summer.
June Eucalyptus
A eucalyptus grove up the street from my house in San Diego. I often go to this restful spot to draw and paint.
Vintage Apartments in Hillcrest
Hillcrest DMV in the Fog
I love this sweet old building- from the 60s?
Too bad they’re going to tear it down. Although I’d rather see urban density and leave the countryside alone, even if it means losing vintage buildings.
It’s a peaceful place to paint until about 8 when people start their commutes.
Yesterday’s painting was the same spot, just looking in a different direction. I’ve got one more from this morning, but it’s not done yet.

An industrial building I like near our favorite Korean restaurant on Convoy (Grandma’s Tofu). This is usually the closest parking spot we can get. Original San Diego, California urban landscape; oil on canvas board.

I think this building is a liquor store. Original streetscape painting of Pacific Beach in San Diego, California. My first painting on oil primed linen- and I have to say, I love painting on this surface!
Avocado Mountains
Original landscape painting of avocado groves studded with giant boulders in the high hills near Temecula, California.
San Diego Twilight Tree
As night began to gather, the Eucalyptus went shades of deep purple to pale lavender in the fading light. Painted from life with pastel; this studio oil painting was painted from that pastel.
