From the Rooftops - Santa Barbara Landscape - 11x14

I keep seeing blog posts by other artists saying they're sick of the cold and sick of winter... well in Santa Barbara "winter" is never really here, so I can't say I'm sick of it, but I AM happy that the sun is starting to stay out later!

Zach and I headed out to First Thursday last night. And I was very happy to receive an award at the opening reception of SBAA's new show at the Channing Peake Gallery.  There were over 300 submissions and only about 70 pieces got in, I felt lucky to have both of my paintings be accepted :)

Lunch at Sly's- Carpinteria Oil Painting - 6x6

I guess it's weird that this place has an inside "patio"...I was more interested in the geometrical shapes that this scene contained.
