Maybe from the 1930s based on the pitch of the roof… my house is the exact same color (a color, I have been informed, is called Toasted Almond). Though I was looking at Google Street View and my house used to be 2 shades of purple.

Christmas Lights in Sherman Heights
This summer we moved a couple of miles to the Sherman Heights historic district in San Diego. This great old house is around the block from us, and every time I’ve walked by I thought about how to go about painting it. Then they decorated for the holidays… and voila!
Happy holidays!

Spanish House in San Diego
A vintage Spanish style home in my old neighborhood- Hillcrest. I love the way the trees in front hide the house from the street, like a secret.

South Park Craftsman House, San Diego
While I was working on this drawing at the laundromat, I overheard the following conversation:
3 year old boy: What’s that?
Father: It’s a flag. Can you say flag?
3 year old: Flag. I’m gonna f*** her like a pig!!!
– I just kept painting.
Victorian Roof, San Diego
This is the view from my studio window. The original part of my house- where the studio is located- was built in 1905.
