Waves on the Rocks, Cabrillo
San Diego Seascape Painting- For Sale
Waves crashing on the rocks on Cabrillo point. I’d planned to touch up this plein air painting in the studio, but after living with the painting for a while, decided to leave it as-is. Something about the less polished state appeals to me.
San Diego Beach Cliffs
San Diego Seascape Painting
With this painting, I was aiming for what Monet did with the cliffs at Etretat:
He did many paintings there, and I’m going to try again with this one at a lower elevation, which I hope will give the cliffs the sense of presence they have in real life.
San Diego Sea Cliffs Plein Air
Seascape, Point Loma from Coronado
I created this original seascape painting in the studio from a plein air pastel sketch that I drew on the beach at Coronado. Sunset light had painted the sky a soft yellow and Point Loma went purple in silhouette against it. This is the end of the beach right before you get to the military base. The headland in the background is Point Loma. The fog hadn’t started to really come in, but there was a light mist forming.
