Laguna Canyon
Crystal Cove state park- a great place for a not too strenuous hike with plenty of scenery.

A great place to hike in Laguna Beach. This is from last year… and look at the glare on the wet paint! Going to have to re-shoot this.
This was from a period when I got restless with my normal way of working and was trying out different alla prima approaches.

I painted this last year while staying in Irvine for a conference. The hotel smelled like butter, but where I was painting smelled like hot earth, sage, and the sea.

Laguna’s a great place to hike since you’ve got cool breezes from the ocean almost all the time. Also, a great place to paint for this same reason.
