This week's work in the rich sunshine in the neighborhood of my town Redwood Valley California is represented by the oak trees and topography. My neighborhood is nearly smack dab in the middle of Mendocino County.

The second landscape work is on the field easel under development at a different location and time of day. The areas I choose are often remote with bad cell phone coverage so that when I inadvertently humidified my cell phone while wading in the cool waters at Mariposa Creek under the Tomkie road the remote locations became less advisable to continue making paintings alone out on Cow mountain. The electronic and cell phone equipment is dry again and ready to use and I am ready to go again.

I like to paint anywhere the fishing is good; the people are kept not too far away to be of help in an emergency.

The paintings this summer will not always have water; that is merely because I want the do paintings about the terrain and the its life.

I will nevertheless have to paint our beauty-full Lake Mendocino.
