San Diego Skyline from Mission Hills – For Sale
I was very excited to paint the skyline from this spot. We’d driven past on Saturday when the clouds were super dramatic.
I was a little disappointed in the clouds on Sunday for not wreathing around the high rises… but I got over it.
Over Ocean Beach – For Sale
What can I say about this? Ocean Beach is beautiful and lots of fun. I had pizza for lunch, and I love pizza.
That’s this painting on the sideways easel, while these guys are checking out the geocache. It was a freezing 55 degrees in the shade- so I really, really suffered for this one. 😉
San Diego Skyline from Spanish Landing Park- For Sale
A small plein air watercolor of the San Diego skyline seen behind the Harbor Island Marina.
I’ve mostly posted oil paintings here, and I continue to paint in oil every day. But I’m eager for the freedom of pen and ink, highlighted with watercolor, so I’m increasingly turning to watercolor for quick studies. Normally I use pastel for those, but I feel like a change. So watercolor it is! I thought you might like to see some of them.
I painted this yesterday- a perfect sunny day- over lunch at Spanish Landing Park.
What was the lunch? Pesto pasta.
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:
Shadows and light splash the hills looking East in the sunset.
San Diego Landscape Painting is for sale.
A street corner in Little Italy, San Diego. I think this is Kettner, but I’m not sure. That’s the famous Wyland mural on the building to the left. I spent a couple of hours walking around this neighborhood while I was getting my car worked on, and started this painting and a couple of others.
I like Little Italy. It’s a mix of Victorian and ultramodern, which I find very appealing… with great pizza and terrible parking.
