Carpinteria Beach, near Santa Barbara.
Rocky Beach, San Clemente, California- buy now
Nice spot for a walk.
My cousin came from out of state for a Disneyland trip, and we met him at a beachfront pizza place in San Clemente. Well not strictly beachfront, but you could see the water.
Leadbetter Beach at dawn- buy now
From a painting trip last summer to beautiful Santa Barbara.
Bright beach- for sale
Afternoon light flaring on the wet sand. East Beach.
Afternoon, Crystal Cove- for sale
Started en plein air (outside on the sand) in Crystal Cove, California.
A plein air work from my recent trip to Laguna Beach. I’d planned this one as just a color study of the softening light towards evening, but I like the tranquil mood of the completed painting.
A collector asked me to keep this one on hold for a few days- but here are more Laguna Beach Paintings for sale.
This might be a color study only or maybe I’ll finish it tomorrow. The light in Laguna and the water colors are different from San Diego, so I wanted to focus on capturing the changing light effects in a series of quick studies.
East Beach in the early evening- this commission is already sold to a wonderful collector, but here are more California beach paintings.
East Beach- for sale
East Beach in Santa Barbara, California, in the morning. Painted on location on the beach.
Capistrano Beach Painting – For Sale
Late afternoon haze at Capo Beach in Dana Point.
I am a person who usually finishes my oil sketches into more elaborate paintings because I like them polished- but in this case, the loose treatment seemed to reflect the quality of the light. So I left it.
San Clemente Pier Painting- For Sale
This was one of those bright, bright days where everything went bleached pale. It was very still.
San Diego Seascape Painting- For Sale
Waves crashing on the rocks on Cabrillo point. I’d planned to touch up this plein air painting in the studio, but after living with the painting for a while, decided to leave it as-is. Something about the less polished state appeals to me.
