Man on the Street
This man was haranguing me for painting too close to his house. So I painted him.

Behind the Hospital
I painted this after a frustrating day at the hospital. Turned out to be whooping cough! Ugh. Painting always relaxes me when I’m stressed. I just drove into a neighborhood, parked, and walked until I found an enticing spot.
Mezquita- Catedral, Cordoba
Painted on location in 104 degree heat. The interior of the Mezquita is one of the wonders of the world. Originally a Roman temple, the site later became the site of a mosque and eventually a Christian cathedral. Painting here was truly special.
Termite Tent, South Park
Found this one by accident one afternoon and it was still up under gray skies the next morning when I had some time to paint.
View in Tuscany
Christmas Tree, Trash Day
Got here just in time before the trash men came, really had to work fast. They left the tree on the street, so I painted it again. Buy now
Castel Sant’Angelo, Rome
I rented an apartment on AirBNB in Rome with a partial view of Castel Sant’Angelo, an ancient structure later used as a fortress by the Popes. The view was very partial, you could really only see it by peering over the neighbor’s patio through some kind of spiky screen covered in plastic vines. To get around that for the painting, I stood on the rickety metal steps to the roof with my easel in a planter box, on top of the crusty remains of departed flowers. In gale force winds, but I didn’t blow off.
Couch on the Street
Painted on location in Point Loma. The guys who live in the two houses behind me came out and told me the couch had been out there for a month. Apparently it was a rocking selfie spot. Also an unbelievably noisy place to paint. It looks like a quiet residential street, but there were cars and trucks blasting past in a constant stream like it was a freeway, and plane noise as well. But that’s San Diego. I’m sure these modest homes are worth close to a million dollars.
