The plums were not ripe, so I sequestered them in the painting studio. I love all the delicate purples and lavenders in the bloom on plums.

North Park Panorama, San Diego
View over North Park – Buy Now
This is the third or maybe fourth painting I’ve done here. I love this view of the city, with so many buildings and hills.
We’re looking out over North Park from the Georgia Street Bridge.
La Jolla Cliff Path
The path to the beach – For Sale
Surfers, of course, sprint nimbly down the sheer cliffs. Personally, I use this twisting path- it leads from the Glider Port down to Black’s Beach.
East County Autumn
East County Landscape- For Sale
I love the tawny grass of autumn in San Diego. A major rainstorm today, everything will turn soft green soon as a new year begins.
Del Mar Beach Painting
Del Mar Beach Painting – for sale
A plein air piece from the bluffs overlooking Torrey Pines Beach.
(Spun the easel around for the photo, I was actually painting the opposite view.)
Mission Hills Street, San Diego
House in Mission Hills – For Sale
I love the old houses in Mission Hills, and I was especially captivated by the shapes and colors of this one, with its rooms over the garage and Airstream trailer parked out front.
French Macaron Still Life Painting
A chocolate macaron – original still life painting – For Sale
Last year I went into a time of obsession with macarons, and I sampled as many as I could. I bought this chocolate one on a trip to Chicago.
Golden Grass Landscape, San Diego
Tecolote Canyon Landscape Painting- For Sale
Golden dry grass in Tecolote Canyon. Just down the hill from the University of San Diego, this is a great spot to paint in the cool breeze off Mission Bay.
Palms on the Hill
Mission Bay Painting, San Diego – For Sale
I’d gone down there to paint the water, but I liked the way these palm trees stuck up over the curve of the grassy hill.
Coronado Beach Painting, San Diego
Coronado Beach Painting- For Sale
An absolutely gorgeous morning on Coronado.
This is from the California Art Club paint out last weekend.
Sunrise on Cypress
Sunrise on Cypress Avenue in San Diego – For Sale
A rare clear morning. So close to the ocean we usually have fog, or at least that’s my impression since let’s face it, I’m not usually up this early.
This is a painting of my street.
Not up quite this early today to meet other painters in the California Art Club on the beach at Coronado, right by the Hotel Del.
I wanted to do a painting of the hotel also, but was running late for a parade in North Park!
I enjoyed the samba dancers:
San Diego Skyline
Painting of Downtown San Diego- For Sale
Painted from life in Golden Hill, overlooking the crisscrossing freeways and towers of downtown.
I like to get out of the studio and paint the city of San Diego and the places I travel to.

Above Ocean Beach
Ocean Beach Painting, San Diego, California – For Sale
I painted this piece on a beautiful day in Ocean Beach last week. While I was working on it, I discovered the spot is a geo cache!
Sunset in San Diego
Sunset in Hillcrest – For Sale
The coastal clouds rolled in at nightfall and turned pink with the city lights. This is from a series of plein air night paintings I did last year. Despite the winter chill (low 60s, brr!), it’s easy to get into night paintings this time of year, when it’s just about fully dark around 5.
Twilight Palms
Sunset in San Diego – for sale
Sunset in University Heights. The Christmas trees just went up for sale in the vacant lot to the left of the painting.
