The door out to the open sea is symbolic of hope and possibilities to me. Inspired by our beautiful oceans, here is my imaginary place.

With gale force winds, there was no painting that day! Credit to my partner’s photo of where we stood, I was still able to capture the moment of this spectacular day.

This is one of the trails I take at Arroyo Verde in Ventura, California. It was a bright spring day with all the wildflowers in bloom. You can see Anacapa Island in the distance.

It was a windy and sunny day with billowing clouds. Great day for a sail and also to set up my easel regardless of the wind.

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.

Using my imagination, I created this nice shaded space under the trees.  Enjoy the view!
