Palace of Fine Arts
San Francisco is a wonderful city to paint, especially on a sunny warm day. This was one of those days. I picked this view of the building for the reflections, sculpted people on the building, and architecture. It is 30"x22", oil on stretched canvas, framed. Price $875.
I'm an oil painter living in beautiful Sonoma County, specifically Santa Rosa, California. I paint almost daily, and can't imagine not painting. I've had many professions, but I was always longing to do art while trying to focus on a job to make a living. I finally gave in to my urge. I LOVE to paint and draw.
I grew up in Los Angeles and started doing artwork when I was very young.
I do not have a formal art education, but have taken many, many art classes and workshops by well known artists . I guess that's called self-taught, although I didn't teach myself.In L.A. I was a member of the Valley Watercolor Society for many years, and when I moved to Northern California initiated WASCO, a watercolor club. Recently I started a group of eight artists called Sonoma 8.
