Hagemann Ranch Rhythms

 


I loved the syncopated patterns dancing around this rugged old barn on an intensely sunny October morning. This is the historic Hagemann Ranch in Livermore, California. It was a joy painting there with friends, hosted by volunteers from the wonderful Livermore Heritage Guild.

Diablo Foothills, October

 


It was a joy painting Mt. Diablo's western slopes with friends on a golden October afternoon. This glorious view never fails to inspire me!

Rising Tide, Bay Point


Like boaters and fishermen, painters sync their rhythms with the tide. On this September afternoon along the Bay Point shoreline glimmering sky reflections appeared as river waters slowly filled the channel. When I painted here at low tide a week earlier the scene was completely different -- and equally beautiful.

Castle Rock Trail

 


These rocky outcroppings are just a prelude to the huge, magnificent Castle Rock formations you'll see further up this trail in the Mt. Diablo foothills. It was a joy to paint this peaceful valley on a sun-drenched September afternoon.
