“DOS PALMAS” Oil Painting

“Dos Palmas”
24” x 16”
Oil on canvas.

You’ve probably seen my abstract paintings I’ve been painting as of lately. But I wanted to take a step back and bring this next painting back my roots as a creative. Originally when I started painting back as a teenager I painted mainly landscapes, and portraits. I was infatuated with painting water, mountains, and clouds. So many hours were spent trying to get it right.

This is a landscape inspired by a photograph I shot on my last visit in Santa Monica, CA. It’s been really hard adapting back to winters and seeing this painting will always bring me back to the warmth, and beauty of California. 🌴
