I painting (and sold) this during the 2014 Carmel Art Festival.  It was unusually hot on the coast, so I spent my time close to water throughout the festival.  Twisting my arm, I know :-)

On a beautiful (but windy) day, I climbed down to the beach in this little leeward cove to get away from the wind.  I found this lovely spot where I spent the day painting in short sleeves even though at the top of the bluffs it was windbreaker-like weather.

Oil on linen mounted on board (gatorfoam), this is suitable for casual diplay on a mantel or for framing.  Call me if you'd like to discuss framing options.

Vivid lively piece that I did from my imagination after many years of landscape painting. This piece has a unique combination of energy along with a calming effect.

This is an oil on linen stretched on 1.5 inch deep stretcher bars. It is designed to be hung unframed.

I had been out on a long day painting, when on the way home I came across this expansive view.  I pulled over feeling exhausted, but the view was some inspiring (and it kept geting better as the sun was going down) that it gave me a second wind and the energy to setup and paint - and I'm so glad I did.

This house has the most amazing garden.  Two years ago I passed this spot and made a mental note to return to paint the scene.  I tried to get back that year, but I was too late.  The blooming season is relatively short, and when I passed this spot this year I immediately went back to my studio, grabbed my gear and returned to paint knowing just how hard it is to get the timing right.

I picked this unusual long format (8x20 inches) to get the feel of the long narrow garden along the side of the properly.  This gives the piece a very unique quality.

I painted this lovely little piece on a quite day after a big storm.  The ocean was calm, and the glare off the waves caught my attention.

I painted this piece in the morning along the Santa Barbara coast.  The ocean was calm and soothing on this particular morning, with a beautiful quality to the light.

This beautiful little painting is an oil painted on a inch-and-half think wooden block.  It is framed in a white floater frame with a black interior.

I was drawn to this scene with the combination of both stillness, movement and reflections in the water.  This is a scene near my home in Palo Alto, CA.
