Sherman Heights Termite Tent
19th and 94 Freeway
Often the evening light here in Sherman Heights looks like Armageddon. Maybe it’s the fumes off the freeway scattering the light on the gleaming overpass infrastructure.

I live a few blocks from this Victorian apartment building. I painted this last year around this time. Since then, one of the apartments in the building burned, and now it’s behind scaffolding.

Trash Cans, Sherman Heights
Walked up 19th Street to the new coffee shop, which does not ever seem to be open. (And it wasn’t.) The evening light looked like Armageddon.

This spot is a few blocks from my house in the Sherman Heights historic district. I went down to try to capture it.

DIY renovation in Sherman Heights- for sale
I think of this place as the Carrie House since it reminds me so much of the house in the original Carrie with Sissy Spacek. The architecture is similar, but far from identical.
It’s a happy story of this area of urban renewal- undergoing a slow renovation by a do-it-yourselfer with black chickens in the yard (chickens not pictured). This house is just a couple of blocks from mine- (already renovated, built circa 1905) and recently got a historical designation. I think the plaque outside says it’s from the 1890s.
Market Street Needs Paving
Market St in San Diego, at the bus stop to points uptown. I live around here.
I started this painting and then went back after probably a couple of weeks and the big green apartment building had suffered a fire in one of the upstairs units. The scorched part wasn’t visible from this vantage point, but it was a weird feeling.
