Stow Lake
Acrylic on Panel - 5 x 7 inches
Two row boats on Stow Lake. The second boat is that tiny white blog in the upper left. I suppose it could be a giant swan, but they don't have any swans in the park. I wonder why.

Leaving Alcatraz
Acrylic on Panel - 5 x 7 inches
Last fall I got to go see the Ai Weiwei installation on Alcatraz. At night. I'd been there at night once before, and it's a great way to see the City and the Bay.
This is also my submission to the Daily Paintworks' Reflections Challenge. Go have a look at the other submissions.

Berkeley Garden
Digital Painting - Brushes Redux on Apple iPad
I agreed to go fruit picking on one condition – that I was going to pick no fruit and was going to draw instead. I brought my iPad and stylus and sat in the shade of an otherwise sunny back yard, and created this.
I was sure I could get that umbrella in one or two colors, but the more I looked at it, the more colors I saw. Still, I managed to keep it to a handful.

Fence Barn
Acrylic on Panel - 6 x 6 inches
This is a farm near here that has lots of brilliant white out buildings and matching fences. It is my submission to the Daily Paintworks "Picket Fence" Challenge. I tried Carol's method of painting the fencing as solid shapes and then carving out the negative spaces. Not as easy as I thought, but a good technique to try.

HQ
Acrylic on Panel - 8 x 10 inches
I used to like painting trees, but the more I try to simplify them, the less pleased I am with the results. I tried to do this tree with only two colors, but twenty minutes later I had about 50. I scraped and painted over, but it's still just not where I wanted it to be, or where I imagined it.

Kyoto Chef
Acrylic on Panel - 9 x 12 inches
He only paused for a brief moment before continuing his non-stop prepping of tapas for all the hungry guests. It was all so good I wanted to order one of everything.

Those Young Ladies
Acrylic on Panel - 9 x 12 inches
Well I know these gals, and have known them for some time. The reference photo for this is a few years old, because that's how long I've been wanting to paint this picture. Finally finished it this afternoon, just in time for their mama's birthday dinner.
