            We were just in Trinidad a few days ago and so I thought I would post a painting of this beautiful area. It’s a great place to hike among giant redwoods, to spot seals sunning themselves on rocks, herds of elk by the side of the road, and because there’s not as much light pollution, thousands of stars at night. We will soon be back in hot and humid Atlanta and these cool temps and beautiful sights will be only memories….or maybe paintings.

It Was All Mist and Fog This Morning

         After days of rain, I woke up to fog and mist….very spooky and mysterious looking. I think fog and mist can also be beautiful in a way and I’ve posted a painting today that I think is an example of this. We were hiking along the northern California coast one blustery, cool, summer day. From my vantage point on top of a cliff, I could see fog gradually enveloping these rocks and woods, giving them an almost ethereal beauty.
