Coastal - small paintings

Just finished a series of small 5 by 7 inch paintings on wood panels.  These are acrylic paintings inspired by a recent trip to the Northern California coastline. Happy to report all five are sold.

Walt Disney Family Museum: Open Studio Demonstration

This past weekend I was invited to be part of the Open Studio program at the Walt Disney Family Museum in San Francisco.  It was a rare sunny day in the Presidio so I was able to set up on the front porch and enjoy the crowds gathered for the Off the Grid picnic event out on the front lawn.

I finished the line work on six large panels and managed to promote my upcoming Visual Storytelling class being held on Saturday May 16th.  I was thrilled to paint at the museum and a great opportunity to meet Camille Rose Garcia whose show Down the Rabbit Hole runs through November 3rd.
