I think this will be the last in this series.  This pool was ridiculous! The floor was covered with gold tiles! That would be one crazy swim.

Definitely my favorite in the series so far.  I started with a very dark colored painting surface for this one, it ended up making things a lot easier and a lot faster. I'm excited to keep experimenting...

Hearst Castle Interior - 6x6

california daily painting hearst castle san simeon california

I'm working on a series of these interior scenes.  I've always been attracted to this type of subject, but I don't always have a chance to paint them. A trip to the castle was a perfect solution! I liked this scene because of the orange glow coming from the light in the room, and the cool blue light from outside being reflected on the furniture.
