Foggy Morning at Lake Murray 8″ x 10″ oil on panel 1/19/2009
Quick study of the fog. There hasn’t been as many foggy mornings this winter yet, I would love to do more paintings of the marine layer – I love the way it dissolves form and turns the ordinary into the spectacular, much the same way a big snow storm might do out east. The photo of this painting needs to be redone, there is glare and the colors seem off. I will retake it in the next few days.

Rock formation at Mission Trails 8″ x 10″ oil on panel 11/25/2008
This is one confused painting, started out being a sunny afternoon and then it turned completely cloudy. I didn’t want to stop so I changed everything and made quite the mess. However, I find it still has it interest.
I hope to get back and do another painting of it that will give it more justice.

Cabrillo Bridge Balboa Park 30″ x 40″ Oil on Canvas 8/2008
This painting, of an off ramp from Rt. 163 as it snakes its way through Balboa Park was done from life on site in the late morning light. The tower in the distance is the Musuem of Man. One of my favorite San Diego paintings thus far.
