Buena Vista Lagoon

This is the first time I've painted this lagoon. Very nice spot right off of the freeway overlooking the lagoon. Got together with a couple of people from The Sage Group, a local plein air painting group. I painted, while the family hunted for treasure. We all had a pretty nice time.

La Jolla Rocks

It was a drizzly day in San Diego yesterday. I thought I'd have the Cove to myself - ha! It was as busy as ever.
