"Sea Swings" - SOLD

6x8" - oil on hardboard

Here's another one from the boardwalk. It's a sort of tilting swing thing. I noticed that it's covered with thousands of little light bulbs. It must be something to see at dusk. 

"Sierra Boat House" - SOLD

6x8" oil on hardboard

I did this painting last night from an image taken over the weekend. There was still a lot of snow on the ground and more was on the way. Very unusual for June. We had beautiful weather though, very sunny and warm.

"Cypress" - SOLD

6x8" oil on hardboard - $250 framed - Studio Gallery

"Beach Shack" - SOLD

6x8" oil on hardboard

This is the beach at China Camp in San Raphael. It's a very popular place for plein air painters. I think this building was used as a snack bar many years ago, but it's been closed up ever since I can remember. This is a really nice spot to spend a summer day.

"Green Triumph" - SOLD

6x8" oil on hardboard

I've been feeling the need to experiment. One thing I love about daily painting is that it motivates me to try new things. For me that's what keeps it exciting. I recently shot a bunch of photographs from unusual viewpoints where the perspective is really exaggerated. I worked fast on this one which I think helped me focus on the abstract and not get bogged down in detail. 

This is my 100th post!
