This one was a commission that nearly drove me crazy with all the lines and angles, but the client is very happy with it (and so am I).

Offshore

I am working on a series of "offshore" paintings based on photos taken from a boat. These happen to be from the same day – July 4th, 2014 – when La Jolla Cove was closed for the fireworks show, creating a rare scene where the popular beach was empty of people in mid-afternoon.

I decided to try a couple of square compositions for a change. They are both oil on stretched canvas and I am happy with the way they turned out. I will definitely do more like these in the future.

    ​Oils & Acrylics

    These paintings were completed in the studio with the aid of photographs taken in the field.  My favorite subjects are California beaches, Southwestern landscapes, and dramatic cloud patterns. People, dogs, horses, birds and cows will also sometimes appear.
