A morning walk in the trails in Balboa Park, San Diego, with the fog turning to lemonade over Golden Hill.

Autumn Trees, Balboa Park
Eucalyptus trees washed with gold in morning light, San Diego. I like to walk here in the morning, with different vistas of meadow and forest opening up.
Evening Light in San Diego
In this painting, I was trying to capture the way the light streams across a landscape in the evening, creating long shadows against a bright sky.

Eucalyptus Trees in Balboa Park
Painting of San Diego Eucalyptus Trees
A stand of Eucalpytus trees in Florida Canyon. I like places like this, where even though you’re in the middle of the city, you get soothing natural vistas.

Eucalyptus Morning
I love the soaring, graceful lines and cathedral-like vaults made by mature eucalyptus trees.
Like the iconic Washingtonia palm, eucalyptus isn’t a native species to the California coast. Because of that, there’s been a backlash in recent years about planting both these beautiful trees along streets and in parks and neighborhoods.
I can see the logic, though I wouldn’t say I agree with it… because I love these trees!
This stand of eucalyptus is on the edge of Balboa Park, and leads into a Hillcrest neighborhood of gracious old homes.
Eucalyptus Forest Painting 2
This is the second painting in a series of 3 plein air pieces I’ve been working on in Balboa Park in the shade of the eucalyptus trees. I’m hoping to finish the last one tomorrow.
