San Diego

My short escape and first visit to San Diego fulfilled some of my ever longing need to feel the ocean. Anything to escape the sweltering 100 + degree weather we're getting here in Texas. I adore the jagged, earthy sandstone cliffs of La Jolla, framed by a big, broad sky and 70 degree temps, wow. And the pandas and gorillas! California is a real gem...some day I'll spend more time there...I could spend days just taking pictures of the rock formations, wiggling the sand between my toes and getting to know the seals by name.....

MYSTIC FALLS - New Painting of The Day

I'm up early today taking photographs of many of my new paintings. The scorching afternoon Texas heat has gotten unbearable already while the mornings are still very pleasant. I enjoy taking photographs of my work outdoors in daylight where you can really see the true colors and nuance.

Here is a sneak peek at my latest abstract landscape work entitled Mystic Falls...available through my online gallery soon. If you look into it, you will get carried into a roaring riverfall that seems to come from somewhere right out of a dream. It's quite mesmerizing...a journey....love the way it turned out but I could never recreate something like this...totally in the moment dance with my subconscious.
