Last week I took a special trip down to Southern California, traveling by plane to LA, I was able to visit some of the best galleries that hold world class Impressionistic paintings. What a treat! After motoring down to Laguna Beach, & Dana Point, I had to take a break and at least try to do some plein air painting. This piece was a first pass along the sandy beach of Dana Point. It felt great to get my easel out a few times and 'settle in' to the world around me.
I had no idea how much the steady diet of viewing masterful work would nourish me! I really have to thank Thomas Kitts for his inspiration in getting us Oregonians to take the plunge and see all that Southern CA. has to offer.
Thanks, Thomas!
