I love and appreciate both new and old San Diego, along with the California history that surrounds these settings. I first went out in search of old homes to paint, and soon realized there was so much more beauty in the overall experience of the city. I go out in search of special places around San Diego County and recreate in art a mix of everyday activity in neighborhood street scenes, all in bold color. In this publication is a selection of my favorite paintings from this group, dating from 2005 to today. Visit the artist's studio #18 in Spanish Village Art Center at Balboa Park in San
