I’ve been painting the cliffs a lot recently, it’s been my mood.

Blustery Day, OB
Painted in OB a few weeks back on a windy gray day.
Here’s a picture of its brother, painted in the same spot after the day had brightened a little:
O Christmas Tree
By a dumpster up the street.
Sunset Cliffs
I painted this a few weeks ago, but it was a study for a wedding gift and I didn’t want to spoil the surprise. 8 x 13 inches, oil on linen.
Rudolph Donut
Woke up Christmas Eve morning to find Mike had waited in line an hour and a half at Donut Bar to bring me Christmas donuts to paint. Their donuts are great, their efficiency and the ergonomic catastrophe of their store less so. A really special treat.
Happy Holidays!
Sunset Cliffs
Lots of things happen on the cliffs. On the week I painted this there were two cliff rescues, with fire trucks and big winches. There was someone cliff diving and tourists taking pictures of it. There was a delivery of a classic corvette to a beachfront mansion. A street was closed off for a gas leak you could smell for blocks. And painting happened.
Coronado Beach
Painted on the beach in Coronado.
Del Mar Bluffscape
10th Street, I think, in Del Mar. A fun place to paint with the trains going by on one side and the surfers climbing down the cliffs on the other.
Stormy Weather
Sunset Cliffs, San Diego
Rock and Surf
The original title for this one was Rock And Bird Shit, but I hate to be crass.
Street, Ocean Beach
This mid century building and its stumpy date palm really spoke to me about the vernacular here.
