PLEIN AIR in Pacifica

..... at about 2 p.m. i started a plein air painting of the Mori Point
in Pacifica....the weather was mild and sunny...the wind is gusting
15 miles an hour and the beach is swarming with surfers,
 joggers and the regular beach bums...
but it was a day that's completely quiet and calm...
good enough for me to paint a seascape on 11" x 14'...
the fog started to roll in with cold winds
from the ocean as i was perched on the 
hill side of Roberts St. ...I thought it was time to
call it a wrap..
....that is Highway 1 in view
the time is 3:30 pm and I haven't had lunch
yet... so I proceeded to Seniores Pizza on 19th Ave
and Taraval to get the Greek Special....just a slice...then
went over to La Baguette to meet Ramon for
coffee...
On Friday night KJ, Ramon and I did a charcoal
portrait of Jessica at the cafe... 
KJ's sketch is on the left side
it was fun to sketch
a person like her who posed like a real pro...

Jessica had fun posing though she didn't realize
that staying still is not that easy...till today...
Tomorrow I'll continue on the Francisco St
cityscape....
Last Saturday Ramon and I had a chance to take photos 
in the downtown area on California St
California St looking west as the sun is setting
and Leavenworth...
A view on Leavenworth looking south at 5p.m.

that's all for now folks !

I'll be in touch so you be in touch
