Cow Palace

This cow barn is on a back street behind Tomales. It looks so cozy under the big eucalyptus trees. I liked the added palm tree. The cows have it good here. 16"x20" oil on canvas.

McMurray Ranch Barn

The McMurray Vineyards are private, but a small group of us got to paint there this year. They're very good to us when we are there, serving us their wonderful wine with our lunches. The shadows were the attractions for this plein air painting. 16"x20" oil on canvas.

Pedroncelli Vineyards

I painted this from the very top of the Pedroncelli Vineyards. The views from there are spectacular in all directions. I liked this one because of the trail leading down into the vineyards and the mixed colors of fall coming on. 16"x20" oil on canvas.

Vistas from Paradise Ridge Winery

The view from this winery looks all the way across the Santa Rosa plain towards Bodega. I love the foggy distance that always disappears in the afternoon. 16"x20" oil on cradled gesso board.
