The past 2 weeks at Brighton Beach, (some disruption due to Gus graduating and de-cluttering) oil on linen, one crayon and pastel. Varying sizes.

Oil on gator foam or board 8x10” and 9x16”. (Not great photos of color, etc.) 6/8-6/15. (Happy Father’s Day!!!)

Cleaning and ran into my Thought Project 😯

Gus heading to Prom in vintage Agnes B. (David’s old suit). Lovely to see him grow into a cool adult! A caring, smart, creative individual who wants to live a “simple life.” I hope he gets to do that. On to Ithaca college for film and maybe a minor in physics. 😊

My niece Emi is going to highschool next year and my mom has a new hip! My family is growing up! Gus is going to college in the fall. Time goes by quickly! Make sure to always enjoy your life and do the things that make you happy! Photo by @nwhitingmartin

Last week - 8x10” oil on board Brighton Beach. (2nd one is on cotton/linen canvas which I’m not crazy about.) wicked allergic chest cold so taking a short break.

5/5-5/18 oil on board. 8x10-9x12? (Too much glare)

4/31-5/4- water temp is up to 55. Feels nice in there. Missed the east coast water; taste, smell, birds. Brighton has its own eco system including all the chaos.👍🏽 oil on board (photos don’t really record the color).

Open water swim in Berkeley Marina (2) 54-55 H20, 55-57 air, SF Aquatic Park 58 H20 and 57 air 4/14-4/19. Oil on board 8x10”.

San Ramon, CA- water color pencils and pen.

4/1-4/6 oil on board and one on canvas 8x10”. After cold water swim.

3/24-3/29- I have been thinking about titles lately. If one can truly get beyond the surface of something. What’s in a title, what’s in a work of art, can people really read psychology or do they import their own psychology? Do we leave it open? (Oil on linen, 8x10”)
