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.
Aqueduct, Segovia
Painted on location in cold and rain. Wearing shorts and a short sleeved shirt, because I did not plan ahead! I love Roman stuff.
Christmas Trash 2
I am happy with this little painting, done as fast as possible. The trash guys dumped the tree out of the trash can into the street. I loved the passive aggressiveness of that.
Yellow January
Painted on location last week in Mission Trails Park.
Termite Tent, Banker’s Hill, San Diego
When I was working on this one, a worker from the fumigation company came over and asked if I was “that guy from Instagram who paints the tents.”
Grant Hill Plein Air
Even successfully gave directions to a woman tangled in the maze of dead end streets while painting this.
In the Street, Hillcrest
Ocean Beach Plein Air Painting
Painted this summer at the cliffs.
House in Golden Hill
Never seen a window in the chimney before. Painted on location in Golden Hill, San Diego.
Dawn in Florence
Dawn in Florence. Then a million church bells started ringing and I burst into deranged tears. This is out the kitchen window of the Airbnb.

Dumpsters, North Park
A pair of buddies in North Park. I don’t know when I painted this. I found it in the trunk of the car.
Sunset Cliffs, San Diego
One of my favorite spots to paint on a gray day a few weeks back.
La Jolla Beach
Painted on location on a perfect La Jolla day. This is just down from the Children’s Pool.
Over North Park
It was superhot last week so I headed to this spot with a nice big shade tree and catching what breeze there was on the heights above North Park.
