Glimmer of Morro Rock
This was the evening painting for the second day of the SLO Plein Air event. I got to this view of Morro Rock just as the sun was almost down. I loved how the rock disappear into the atmosphere and tried to capture the light in a 45 minute painting.
Color and the effect of light are central to my painting and the envelope of light itself is often my subject matter. In the past few years I have been in plein air events in California to New York. Honored to be selected as a Signature Member for California Plain Air Painters. I hope you enjoy looking through my paintings.
