Plein Air @ a dock in Sausalito CA


Such a charming harbor town with hills and houses which I always enjoy visiting.  Though it is not close to where I live, we were blessed on Memorial Day, I finially got to paint there.


Sometimes you have to give up something to fulfill other ideas. I decided not to ge paddling on my friends' kayaks, watching them having fun in the water, and then struggling on my work.

I thought it was worth it, just beacuse I had this idea for so long. Only it was a little chilly and windy (like our winter tempreture), but I was well prepared with my down jacket on.
The clouds were dramatic, but I focused on a distant and interesting subject. I didn't even know what to call it

Perfect timing, they all came back to shore, and my work was almost done, we had luch together and got to catch up.
