Where Sand Hill meets the edge

Hi-tech reaches rural Woodside. Road meets hills. Sun dissolves to fog.

Twisted oak in sun

These trees are twisted and spare, sit alone on the hills. I've never seen them anywhere else.

Calaveras road

A valley sits between Silicon and Pleasanton. There are farms and plant nurseries, horses and cows.
A rural road links the hi-tech areas between rolling hills.

Baylands

Turquoise bowl with lemons

This more of a design than a still life. And kind of large at 12 x 16".

Russian Clouds

From a sketch I made on a trip to St. Petersberg,
and with the help of photos taken, I tried to capture the mood of the Russian sky. I'll do more with this idea...the mood was amazing.
