I grew up on this beach and after all these years its still my favorite spot on Earth. Just the slightest breeze with dolphins jumping and snowy plovers plovering. I spent from 7 am to 5 pm yesterday making this. I came home and went to sleep...

I was up in Santa Barbara today and I have to agree that it was a PERFECT day!!

One of the things I marveled at were those reflections that you captured so well in your painting!
