Morro Bay, Tiny Sketches

It's so important to keep the inspiration coming as an artist. Travel and painting outdoors keep me going.  I'm sure my Channel Islands friends understand. I continued my kayak painting tradition and did these on my trip to Morro Bay.

Dorian Hiking Back from The Rock

I had my sketch box in a baggie complete with Sharpie and brush.  When I got my trusty pad of paper out I realized I had some practice sketches on the front of the postcards.  I had to flip them over and used only 1/2 of the back due to all the pre-printed info there.  These are really tiny (apx 3"x4")and actually quite charming.  The little set will look nice framed together.

The Big Guy (He didn't have the smile; that was a wild mark of the pen I managed to include in the composition:)

Thanks for the ride and the very special birthday Dorian!
