A glorious, sunny morning at San Gregorio Beach! Got a couple of paintings out of it, and enjoyed my time with artist friends.

Water is certainly rejuvenating for me, even when I’m just looking at it

started last Monday in my friend’s garden
Today’s #quickportraits I did with #pencils4tea Thank you Mark @homebakedart for hosting us today, and thanks to all of the models! I got to model, too!
What a soft and lovely watercolor!
Further developments on this flower painting. As a painting progresses, I spend less time painting and more time deciding what else it needs
Began a few flower paintings in my friend’s garden. Because I’m having some arm pain, I tried using my non-dominant hand for the pencil sketch. The result: looser shapes and lines.
I cut up another abstract experiment and made a painting from the good pieces. A work in progress
Celebrated 31 wonderful years with this great guy. Thanks for being my best friend all these years, Hugh!
Made some good trouble today. Thanks to all who came and marched and chanted. And thanks to Representative John Lewis!
Finally visited my Sunnyvale Sun today at Muwekma Park! Makes me happy to see it among the people walking and running their laps and children playing.
There’s another sun there, too!

If you look at the base, there’s a QR code that takes you to a map of all the Sunnyvale Suns!
A few quick sketches Monday morning with #drawingisfree_org
