Dolphins

Playful Dolphins at entrance too Sterns Wharf. in Santa Barbara. I show paintings along the artwalk each Sunday. Always looking for something interesting to paint, this family posed well.

Last Rays on the Bluffs

One of those golden moments I have waited to paint!   This was a biggie for a plein air oil , 20x26. I plan to do a couple Gicles or post cards. My family seems to want this to be a keeper!

Sorry I have been a poor blogger, but in other ways I have been very good!  I still work my design shop, and my  new gallery/ studio. "En Plein Air" both on Linden in Carpinteria.  ( One may see me running back and forth). On Sundays I show at the Santa Barbara Art Show along the beach.  Just throw a few more colors on my palette such managing my ranch, SCAPE art group and my crazy family. I wonder if all of it makes my colors more vivid or muddy!!!

En Plein Air Gallery girls
