Fall color in the Ruth Bancroft Garden means hot pink, turquoise blue, and every shade of green you can imagine. An artist's delight!

Deer Valley October

Mt. Diablo and its foothills cradle an expanse of rugged ranch lands in far East Contra Costa County. Started this while painting with friends on Deer Valley Road in Antioch a few weeks ago, finished in my studio today. The warm October colors are cheering my heart on this cold, rainy day (although the rain is most welcome.)

Blake Garden has spectacular bay views.  It was a joy painting with friends in this peaceful garden on a crisp, glittering Bay Area day.
