The mountains in Southern California are younger and more angular than in Northern California where I have painted in the past.
The geometry of the rocks contrasts with the vegetation in a way that is very beautiful to me.
I often think of fabric as I paint these patterned places.
This scene in Malibu reminds me of a madras plaid and evokes the endless summer of Southern California's climate.
