The town of Goleta, coined as "Goleta the Good Land" as there used to be many farms. Painted from a photo I took back in 70's, here is "vintage" Goleta back in the day before all the city growth. Over yonder is Santa Barbara in the distance.

As the sun starts to set in Sedona, it brings out all their rich colors of the red rocks. They continue to glisten and sparkle until the sun goes down.

This lovely meadow is at the Santa Barbara Botanical Gardens. Sitting under an oak tree this was my view.

Oak trees are in abundance in Ojai, California. Here is one I captured in the "Pink Moment" that is a special time at sunset where the sky and mountains are in an array of pink tones at dusk.

Carpinteria Bluffs is one of my favorite places for a paint out.  Here's one on a bright sunny day.

Standing at Goleta beach behind my easel I enjoyed capturing the reflections from the sky into the water. This is the view looking east towards Santa Barbara, California.
