Sycamore trees at Los Alamitos creek in San Jose. I started this on location, but had to finish it up at home mostly from memory and imagination

This one is probably a bit too corny, but hot air balloons are really a thing in Napa of course

I was up in Napa early this morning taking reference photos of vineyards. I have a commission to design and paint several wine barrel lids. This is my first design idea. More to come

I did this one at Navarro Beach during a recent painting retreat. I just now added a slight gradation to the house that made it sit better in the painting. Amazing to me how one tiny change can make such a difference sometimes
