21st Annual Laguna Beach Plein Air Painting Invitational Artist!

Seven Layers of Spring, 16 x 20 Catalog Painting

Above the Shores 14 x 17 Showcase Painting

I am thrilled to announce I have been invited to paint with a wonderful group of artists in THE plein air event of southern California, the Laguna Plein Air Invitational!

It will be challenging since I am still very much learning and experimenting with coastal wave and rock scenes!

If you are in Southern California it is well worth the trip

The dates are Oct 5 to 13 and you can find a detailed event schedule at https://lpapa.org/laguna-plein-air-invitational/

Top of the World La Jolla 9 x 12

This was a one hour study at the top of Mount Soledad in La Jolla. This was 12:30 to 1:30 as that's when the fog lifted.

I had such a wonderful time painting this mountain landscape looking down on the summer fog and the pacific! And to the north , where I live, maybe Carlsbad is in the distance.

Here's the scene and my set up:
