This is Millie our dog that has now gone to doggie
heaven but is still with us in spirit. She loved family and
just hanging out with us. They make great pets for people
with children. Her ears were really that big!

We just moved to the Northern coast of California and their is a lot of inspiration here. When sitting at the beach painting I'm finding the motion of the sea is difficult to paint. I created a painting with the waves but I will admit I did take it into the studio to complete the painting with photos I had taken. Plien air painting is something I want try out soon. Here is the finished painting.
We have always wanted to live near the beach and we had a opportunity to do just that a few months ago. I love the cooler weather and small town living. It's still a adjustment for everyone. I wasn't sure I would like a smaller community but it has it's benefits. Less traffic and fewer people on the beaches, even with tourist's here. I have a little more time to paint and the inspiration here is endless! I just finished a painting in mixed media. Although this painting was inspired from the tide pools of the NW, it had it's challenges and I finally finished it. There is real beach sand incorporated into the painting from the same beach it was painted from!
