Urban Landscape, San Diego – Oil Painting

This house and the garage- in the foreground- are Mission Revival in style, but due to the vantage point from the alley, they look like modernist white boxes. It is a strange but wonderful place. The front and sides are all different colors- pink and light green and taupe and beige for the different sides of the house and detached garage. But all close to pale so you don’t see it at first. After the recent rains, the yard is a green and gold carpet of California wildflowers.

Pink Sky Palm Trees – Landscape Painting

Palm Trees in Mission Valley, San Diego, California

Pink Sky Palm Trees – California Landscape Painting

Landscape painting of 3 palm trees in silhouette against a night sky turned glowing pink from the lights of the stadium reflecting against the marine layer rolling in off the Pacific. This painting is from memory, trying to capture the colors of the evening landscape driving down towards Qualcomm Stadium in Mission Valley, San Diego, California. When I got home, I did a study in pastels, and completed the oil painting the next day.

Bougainvillea in Hillcrest- Urban Painting

San Diego Urban Landscape Painting

Bougainvillea in Hillcrest- Urban Landscape Painting

It is no secret that I am drawn to hot pink bougainvillea. I think it looks great and when I am able to afford my dream house I will plant it everywhere. So when I find a place with these flowers, I try to find a way to paint it.

The winter color of the early morning light has already changed from when I painted this a couple of weeks ago.

San Diego Farmer’s Market Painting

San Diego Urban Landscape

Urban landscape painting of the old San Diego Farmer’s Market, which is a pink modernist structure (from the 1920s?) connected to an older brick (Victorian?) structure. It is located at the edge of downtown and Barrio Logan. I’d been wanting to paint it for a long time but with the one way streets downtown I kept getting lost.
