Lifeguard Tower - 6x6

California carpinteria beach daily painting landscape lifeguard tower

Oh man has it been gloomy here lately! June is definitely living up to it's reputation.  Luckily I've hoarded lots of reference photos of sunnier times for weeks like this, I guess I'm like a squirrel, or an ant....anything as long as it keeps me from having to paint gray things.

Tomorrow will be a busy day...and today will be busy while I prepare for it.  The Santa Barbara News Press is doing a story on me (yay!), and they're sending out a photographer to get some pictures before the interview.  And by some, I mean a lot, they want to include photos of 24 of my paintings, this makes me nervous and excited.  I'll let you know how it goes.
