Driving south to San Diego from Los Angeles, we stopped at an overlook to watch the sun go down over the ocean. Part of Camp Pendleton, a Marine Corps base with miles of preserved natural coastline.

This painting is from the California Art Club paint-out a couple of months ago. November or December, I think. It was a day with huge, hard to believe surf crashing and unbelievable light.

Here’s another painting of the bike path I used to ride to and from work, which wound through farms and forests and along an old railroad cutting through rock. It’s a nice ride if you’re in the Blacksburg area.

I started this painting either during or shortly after getting back from our trip to Blacksburg last autumn.

I think this is the first time I’ve ever put cars in a painting. Well, maybe I did in Spain but it’s been more than a decade, so I don’t think it counts.

Also, terrifying street to drive on, BTW. Let alone to park; kudos to those brave drivers.
