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.

Coronado Plein Air
Coronado Island Painting- For Sale
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.

The last painting of the evening, at Monarch Beach in Dana Point.

Blacks Beach Painting 2
Blacks Beach Painting, San Diego
This is kind of a companion to yesterday’s Blacks Beach painting, both scenes looking out to sea, and painted at the same time.
When I go to Blacks Beach, I try to do several paintings, since it’s at the bottom of these wonderful soaring cliffs and the stairs down to it are so killer. It’s a great place to paint, with every kind of light effect imaginable from the ethereal to the very stark.
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.
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.)
La Jolla Beach Kayaks
Kayaks on the Beach, La Jolla – For Sale
Kayaks drawn up on the beach in La Jolla. This is such a tranquil spot.
And unlike Black’s Beach, no need to climb down what must be thousands of feet of cliffs. 😉
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!
Sailboats on San Diego Bay
Sailboats on San Diego Bay – for sale
Sailboats on San Diego Bay. I enjoy the challenge of painting water, which is so many different colors at once, and the challenge of painting boats, which have complex curving shapes. This painting started out as drawings in a lawn chair on Shelter Island.
Blacks Beach Bluffs
Blacks Beach Painting San Diego- for sale
Rolling surf seascape at Black’s Beach along the La Jolla, California coast. I love this beautiful area of the coast with its dramatic cliffs, wide beaches and hazy light; my knees love the stairs down to Blacks Beach somewhat less.
