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.

I got turned around when headed to Red Rocks outside Las Vegas. Here’s the desert from where I wound up when I got lost. No red rocks here, but the blue mountains were very pretty.
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.

Hillcrest Painting San Diego Plein Air – For sale
Morning light on the corner of Robinson and Park Blvd in San Diego. A short walk from my house in Hillcrest.
I like this corner because of the way the buildings pile up on the hill behind the art deco building in front. I like painting steep areas.
San Francisco’s vertigo- inducing streets are more famous- but San Diego’s got its fair share of knee-killing ascents. Painting the city on the hills is a new project of mine.
Here are a few of my favorites:
