This painting was a commission by the owner of this home.
Terry and I spent three weeks in Ontario Ca. It's in southern
California and the area I was raised. For two weeks I
painted on this piece as well as several other paintings in this
beautiful neighborhood. We both had a grand time painting in
the warm sunshine of Southern Calif., while the winds blew and
the rain fell up here in Humboldt County. This home was
built in 1926, the year my Father was born. A good year.

Terry and I painted in a park in Claremont Ca, just a
few miles from Ontario and my favorite town in the area.
A stunningly beautiful college town. We had met Richard Scott,
another painter and the son of a long time friend of my Dad's.
He suggested we get together to paint at the park. It was a great
afternoon and wonderful to meet and paint with another artist.
I painted this view of a couple of homes across from the park.

While we were in Ontario a storm dropped some snow in the
mountains. We drove up three different afternoons to Mt. Baldy
and I painted three snow studies. It was exhilarating each time.

Palm and Armsley
This is the view looking east on Armsley Square in the morning
light. It is truly a beautiful tree lined street. I loved working with
all the different shapes of trees and plants, shadows and light, and
a variety of greens.

Another view from the park in Claremont. I was struck by
the glowing house and the stop lights. I also love adding
figures as they walk the streets.
