Drive By 33

I haven't posted as I have been on vacation. This year I chose to ignore the Internet and news for a few days ( OK I did post pictures but I just couldn't help sharing). It was very relaxing. We took many walks along the beach, drove through a tree in Leggett, California and rediscovered a beach that was just gorgeous. I painted a lot. I tend to work small so I was able to complete about 17 pieces mostly painted en plein air. I worked primarily with pastel, watercolors and Inktense watercolor pencils. I wanted to try drawing from the car. I did about 5 drawings in the car using Inktense watercolor pencils on Shizen watercolor paper. This painting is the first in what I will call "drive by paintings".
