The Ocean at Westcliff

5/28/2016

I’ve been trying to post each one of these paintings separately, but I can’t seem to get the individual photos to line up and accurately portray the colors. I hope you can imagine what it truly looks like.

This is a commissioned piece made up of 3   12″ x 12″ gallery wrapped canvases, so the painting actually continues on the sides of each one.

This Monterey Cypress tree stands on a cliff overlooking the ocean just north of Santa Cruz, California. These cypress trees grow to various heights and widths and are found  surviving the tough conditions along the California coast, as they are some of the only large plants able to withstand the salty spray of the ocean seabreezes. Some of these spectacular trees are over 200 years old. My daughter-in-law sent me a photo she had taken of this view of one of her favorite landmarks and asked me to paint it for their newly remodeled bathroom. I've heard that she loves it so much she decided to put it in the living room. :)

I love painting oceans...I will definitely have to do more of these...

"Behold, He spreads His lightning about Him, And He covers the depths of the sea. " ~ Job 36:30

Thank you, Janet. :) Had a nice update from Domonic on how your family is doing. It was a fun visit. I am so impressed with all your sons' talents. I've especially enjoyed seeing Zeke and John's art and music on instagram. Amazing!!! Miss you all.
