Retirement? No way!

Last December was my last semester teaching Fine Art for the local colleges.  I wanted to step back from "teaching" and break rules.  I hit the ground running with a series of oil paintings inspired by the Ocean.  I went to different beaches in Laguna painting and sketching, then returned to the studio to create paintings that captured the energy of the sea.  Meanwhile, I have been working on a new series which is more abstract.  Posts soon to follow:)

Captured Light      24x30

Driven by the Spirit    18x24

Picnic Beach    18x24

Rising Tide    18x24

Tablerock at High Tide    24x30 

 These are just a few of the 9x12 oil sketches done in the process.
