Footpath

This is a view at Irvine Park, in Orange County, CA, that I discovered last Wed. when I found some time to go paint. I haven't followed the path to find out where it ends, but did follow it far enough after I'd finished painting to see the riverbed totally full of raging water. This was after a large rainstorm and it surprised the heck out of me as I'd never seen hardly any water in this particular riverbed. Hopefully I can do a painting later of the riverbed when it is full.

Riverbed

Another riverbed scene. They are fun. I think I did a better job of creating the necessary distance from foreground to background? I want to go back! SOLD

Carlsbad Eucalyptus

This was painted in a little park in Carlsbad, CA. I went with a group from our painting group--So. Calif. Plein Air Painters and we had a wonderful demo done by Rita Pacheco. It was a fun day.
