I went out to Glorietta Bay on nearby Coronado Island and began to paint, thinking that the mid morning fog would lift and the sea and sky would turn into glorious blues. As you can see, I was mistaken. Even so, the day did not disappoint as I was able to sketch some of the many people who were out and about enjoying a break from our heat wave.
Including people in a landscape painting continues to challenge me. So often they look added on, rather than organically part of the scene.

This is wonderful and so full of movement and life!

I wonder too, as far as I know he did not write or live in San Diego.

It was just an impression. Just took out “Sweet Tuesday” to re-read it. His work didn’t cover San Diego as much as I know.

California is looking more and more Steinbeck-ish.
