I adore driving along Highway 1's northern coastline. Stopping in Monterey to paint the textured cliffs and serene sea on a sunny day was pure joy.

Laguna Beach, a beloved destination of mine, always calls to me with its stunning coastline. I aimed to capture the radiant and vivid light that defines the beauty of this beach town.

Heading north on the winding Highway 1, with the expansive skies and boundless beauty, the possibilities for painting are endless.

I enjoyed painting all the textures and rich colors of the red rocks. Sedona is always a magical place to explore.

I have never seen a desert so colorful, but after all the rain we had in 2023, here we have it! I just had to pull over to capture it.

Before dusk, I was able to finish this painting and capture the pinks casting on the earth from the sunset.

It's a preserve located in Isla Vista, in Santa Barbara County. Being protected for research and education, makes me extra happy being here.
