This series of paintings is inspired by my ongoing love of California, from the desert to the sea. These images are from settings in Joshua Tree National Park, the Pacific coast and a number of places along the way. They are all a combination of watercolor, ink and gouache and the size is usually about 13x19 inches, portrait or landscape. The drawing and painting of these artworks is highly detailed and their true impact is best experienced in person. If you wish to purchase any of these contact me through my email.
