Peaceful Valley 11 x 14 oil on canvas While traveling over a mountain pass in Central California, I stopped to enjoy this vista down into a sheltered valley.

Laguna Tide Pool 6 x 8 oil on canvas SOLD This small painting is a study for a larger Laguna seascape, which will probably feature several different rock patterns rather than just the one.
