Johnson's Beach Day


When my friend Lola visits from Madrid, we love to hang out on Johnson's Beach. We go early and rent two umbrellas, thereby creating a lovely shaded area on the edge of the river in which to paint and enjoy the beauty of the river.

Two views of the Russian River



Lately, I've been going down to the river to make quick studies. I like this practice as it helps me to avoid overworking the paintings. The first photo shows a study done on the riverbank close to my house. The second photo shows a study I did on Johnson's beach, looking west. The pillars are the first part of the summer dam to go in.
