Michael Newberry, Torrey Pines, 2010, oil on panel, 9 x 12 inches

Near the end of May, 2010, I had a small family reunion in La Jolla, while there I painted some of the coast in the area. Here it was a beautiful day, not too hot and not too cold, fresh and warm in the sun. I find the curves in the California coastline beautiful and challenging in their sweep.
