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.

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!

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.

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.

I loved the patterns of raggedy old pilings and muddy rivulets that appeared at low tide along this quiet fishing channel in Bay Point, California. The scene changed rapidly as the tide came in -- the ebb and flow of delta life!

It was a magical day at Blake Garden with misty views of the East Bay shoreline and glimmers of the Golden Gate Bridge in the distance. Such a joy to paint there with friends!

Started last Spring at Old Borges Ranch in the Mt. Diablo foothills. Finished -- and tweaked -- in my studio this week. I love letting my imagination come out to play!
