Goleta Slough

acrylic on linen mounted on gatorboard, 12" x 16"

I recently spent a few days painting at Goleta Beach, just north of Santa Barbara, with Marcia Burtt, hoping to glean a few pearls of wisdom from an absolute master.  In the two plus days I had with her, I started five paintings and finished none.  This was my last effort, the result of a two-hour session on the morning of my return home.  I worked on it for another two hours in the studio, until I was done with it and the next unfinished painting called out to me.  More to come.
