East Bay Hills. Part of the Water series.
Last week we flew down to LA to see the Richard Diebenkorn exhibit at the Orange County Museum. It was 80 works of The Ocean Park Series. Awe inspiring, and painful. The cigar box lid paintings were beautiful. The prints and gouache works on paper were wonderful. And the large canvas collection were truly a sit down moment. Nice gallery, not crowded. These paintings felt like looking at the process and path of secrets. So many layers, so much process. Very moving and spectacular.
in progress. i like the scale
Plein air in the Berkeley Hills. Thick paint, bugs and leaves. It’s all there. Lucky there is not a paw print from Brutus.
Warm up drawings. I’m addicted to this new black charcoal that has no midtone. It’s like ink. Dense and black. And pastels. An immediate application of color.
Something about a large wet painting when you leave never looks the same when you return. Working very large for me.

That was interesting.
