"CRYSTAL COVE"

Just a nice departure from my other works I thought I would paint this.  I was down at a wonderful place that has been painted hundreds of times over many years. "CRYSTAL COVE" an enchanting place centered  somewhat between Laguna Beach and Corona Del Mar, each beautiful in their own way.  Crystal cove is filled with much stories from locals and the Hollywood movie stars from the past, "YES" I have my own stories too but, that's for another time.  Crystal Cove is on the sand with new and used homes, some empty amazingly still standing.  So with all this charm and history, like I said, many paintings are floating around out there... I on the other hand zeroed in on the flowers that are abundant along the path in and around old railroad ties for steps, fences, porches and sand drifts and all, I spotted this beautiful hibiscus minding its own business avoiding foot traffic and the stomping of stray dogs.  I knelt down, said "hello"  and gave honer to its survival by painting it.  This painting is going into the Art Show I'm presently in for another 6 weeks...  ( Not Available)
