Happy 4th everyone!


I couldn't get a very good shot of this one, it was raining outside so my options were kind of limited. In person I was really happy with it though :)

We're still in Eureka, it's kind of like another country here. We ran the 5K around the lake yesterday and instead of giving us bananas or oranges at the end, they gave us kuchen....I think that's how you spell it anyway...I don't...

I was a little nervous to paint the bluffs. I feel like it's a hot topic around here, and I didn't want my first attempt to be horrible :) But I really like this one. I love when a painting turns out well and was fun to paint. I love how the fields around this area are an orangish color, it makes a nice contrast with the ocean and the blue sky.

The Night Light - Daily Oil Painting - 6x6

California daily oil painting daily painting for sale dark oil painting landscape oil painting lights night scene orange red

I'm switching it up a little this monday morning, sometimes I forget that it's fun to paint night scenes. I really like how this one turned out, I wish I could have captured the actual colors used in the dark areas in this painting. I didn't use any black paint, so there's more interest in these areas than what the camera is showing :)

Breaking Through II - Carpinteria Landscape Painting - 6x6

blue california coast carpinteria landscape carpinteria salt marsh clouds daily painting for sale landscape oil painting

This painting doesn't really portray my usual color palette... the sky is much more pastel-ish than I would usually prefer. But that's how the sky felt that morning, so I guess I can't complain.
