Today marks my 100th daily painting! This is a little shop that I've wanted to paint for a while. It's a little surf shop/clothing store on Linden Ave in Carpinteria. They usually have brightly colored surf boards out front, and a minty green exterior which just cries out to me to be painted.

This was the tiniest avocado I have ever seen, it was so cute I just had to paint it. And I love the background color, teal blue and that particular shade of green is one of my favorite color combinations.
I had a lot of fun painting this one, I especially liked the way the clouds turned out. Which is good, I'm sure I'll be painting many more cloudy scenes now that June gloom is upon us.
