Rolling Farmland in Santa Barbara

Farms in Santa Barbara, California Original Landscape Painting

The rolling hills above Santa Barbara, dotted with California oaks and livestock. We saw horses, cattle- including longhorns- ostrich or emu (can’t tell which)… and then eventually we saw the inside of a winery tasting room.

We went to Fess Parker Winery. Fess Parker was the actor who played Davy Crockett and Daniel Boone on TV back in the day.

At the winery, you could buy miniature coon skin hats to put on wine bottles. Very tempting, but we chose to spend our money on wine instead.

Hot Morning at Burnt Mountain

Southern California Mountains Landscape Painting

Original landscape painting of the mountains north of San Diego, California.

A bright, hot morning as we drove north through the mountains outside Escondido, California. The summer sky was thick looking with haze. We pulled over for me to do the pastel sketch I based this painting on.
