This landscape painter is really enjoying the days right now! The weather is fantastic. The recent rains followed by warm sunshine turned everything springtime green. I wake up and can't wait to see what the day looks like. Don't know how long it will last but it's great right now.

Here's a recently finished painting and the subject is a lake in the southern part of San Diego county. The Eastlake area has grown so much recently that I hardly recognize the place when I go there. Have to wonder how many more years the other shore will remain pristine wilderness.

"Lazy Lake Morning", 9 by 12 inches, oil on stretched canvas.
