Big impact! This coastal California view has vibrant oceans blues, teals, sea foam, and juicy paint strokes. It feels like you are looking out a window the way the trees frame the composition. While painting this piece I was inspired by the many times I’ve painted on location. The greens in the foliage are gray-green and olives, while the sand and bluff is an earthy ochre color. The misty, blue bluff in the background  gives a sense of scale and distance.
