Click the link in my bio to view the latest painting demo on my YouTube channel. I’ve titled this one ‘Perfect Pitch’. In the video, I go into detail on the steps to creating this 40x60 oil painting ( with acrylic under painting. The painting was a commission so I talk a bit about working with commission clients. It’s only a little over 5 min but filled with good info. Thanks for watching! #wavepainting #wavepaintingdemo #paintingdemo #waves #surfart #seascapepainting #beachdecor #coastalliving #coastadecor #beachvibes #learntopaint #commissionedart #commisionpainting

Getting back to some figurative work - having fun with this sunset sesh motif. But it makes me long for some warm days. I surfed on Monday and the water was ridiculously cold! Maybe that subconsciously caused me to use the hot reds and oranges in this one. #surfart #sunset #sunsetsessions #oceanart #surfing #beachvibes #beachdecor #beachart #surfcouple #waves #beachart #tropicalvibes #oilpainting

Plein Air Afternoon at Sunset Cliffs (San Diego). I haven’t been able to paint outdoors much lately but my good buddy @beardart rolled into town so we decided to give it a go. The weather was perfect (an exception to the windy, cloudy late Spring weather which we’ve muddled through for the last few weeks. There’s a couple of these keyhole views in this area and that’s where I decided to paint. The second pic is Matt on top of his rolling studio. I’ve painted up there a time o...r two. Last pic is the rest of the crew getting lost in the various views of the area as the sun sank into the ocean. By the way my painting is for sale- DM inquiries. #pleinairpainting #pleinair #paintsandiego #sunsetcliffssandiego #californiadreaming #californiaimpressionism #paintoutdoors #surfart #oceanscape #oceanscapepainting #beachvibes #coastalvibes #coastaldecor

Just found this looking thru some old pics - not sure how I made it but looks like a combo of digital and analog. I have enjoyed using abstract backgrounds behind wave scenes. #abstractwaves #waveart #surfart #waves #tropicalart #tropicalvibes #tropicalvibes #coastalart #beachvibes #beachvibes

Poster art for Jake Shimabukuro - ukulele virtuoso from Hawaii - for a concert in Honolulu a few years back. He’s a guy who took the Ike to a new level.

Welcome the the Aloha Friday edition of PLACES I’D LIKE TO LIVE. These 3 have in common an orange sherbert glow about them, maybe reminiscent of some shave you once had on a hot day in the tropics.
