Whaler's Cove

8x8" 

Oil and wax on spackle over an un-cradled panel


This painting continues along in the same spirit as the piece below.  I describe in detail some of what is going on behind these new pieces.  This particular image is from a photo that I took along the California coast.  Whaler's Cove is up near Pigeon Point, where I spent some time recently.  It's about 25 miles north of Santa Cruz.   
I've been using my iPhone as a tool for my paintings.  I've been thrilled to discover that my phone takes great photos and that there are some really wonderful photo apps out there for manipulating images.  These photos have been an increasingly important source of imagery for my paintings.  I love that I can use new technology to bring something to what is a very old-school process.
