Our posting of last week prompted me to look back at some of my paintings of coastal scenes. I'm not sure anymore where this scene was from but I think it was somewhere on the Malibu coast. The obvious reason for this painting was the "glow" of the sunset and the reflections on the water. I sold this one almost immediately after it was painted. As I recall, the paint was still wet when I sold it to a lady who had lived in Southern California for several years. In a matter of days, she was going to move back east and wanted a little painting of the coast as a remembrance. Currently, I am painting a series of paintings from our recent trip to Visalia but as soon as I am done with the series, I might paint some more coastal scenes. I love the challenge of painting the different moods of the ocean.
