This moment is the beginning of the unfolding of a big dream, to drive and live along the Pacific Coast and paint the sea for a year. I've just completed 100 studies of waves from various places along the Sonoma Coast, and I'm making them available first in an art show this weekend. When it is over I will post some of them here.
I've spent the last year plein air ( painting in the open air) all along the coast where I live, traveling at least twice a week to paint both winter and summer. As I prepare this year I hope to post the paintings I'm doing, making them available for you to enjoy or purchase, and have many join me in this adventure.
This is a dream right now, a sort of build it and they will come place. I have no idea how it is coming about, but my vision is blazing in my heart and on my canvas. Stay posted.
I also have to figure out how to do this blog thing as I go so it will evolve technically too as I go. Thanks for being part of it.
This is incredible. I love what you have so far - and spending an entire year living on the coast and painting the sea is going to be an amazing series. I'm following now and don't want to miss a single post. I tweeted your blog tonight and posted it on Facebook and posted the current post too since I enjoyed it so much. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your dream, your lovely paintings and the success of your very recent show!
ReplyDeleteI look forward to following you along the coast and enjoying your paintings. Wishing you wonderful weather along the sea!
Thank you all, how this unfolds will be a mystery, and won't happen without lots of other support and people, so we will adventure together to the sea and the future.
