Cayucos Cliff, Solstice

Painting on location (plein air) in Cayucos, CA, is inspiring and such a pleasure, and on Summer Solstice especially!  It surely is summer now and yet the cool ocean breezes of Cayucos are a best escape for inland heat.  Created with a palette knife, very textured and thick paint. I painted the same cliff scene again, slightly different composition than last week's. 

This painting has been accepted into "The Language of Paint", a Women Painters West exhibit, at Tracy Park Gallery in Malibu.
