Edna Valley

View of Edna Valley near San Luis Obispo. This area, like much of Northern California, sprouts new vineyards with seemingly each passing day. The ocean's influence can be seen with the lifting fog over the hills.

Napa Valley Mustard

The February mustard blossomed profusely this year because of the recent rains. This painting was done in Napa Valley.

Matanzas Lavender

The glorious lavender fields at Matanzas Creek Winery beckon many plein air painters during the June blooming season. I love the contrast of the orange unbrellas.
