a series of paintings
Amgrunt is one of six paintings from Paul's new series featureing paintings of United States Marine Corps Amphibious Tractors (Amtracs) at Camp Pendleton and in Vietnam from 1967 - 1969.
Spirit of San Juan, a painting
The hills above San Juan Capistrano provide a peaceful location to get away and on a clear day a beautiful view of San Diego to the south, Avalon on Catalina to the west, and the San Gabriel Mountains to the north. Horses and riders have played a major role in San Juan's history and the city is still home to a large equestrian population.
Sandcastle Princesses, a painting
A mom and her two princesses take advantage of a very low tide to plan and build their dream castle. A soft setting sun illuminates the scene beside the San Clemente Pier: warm sunset light dances on the water and delicately highlights the figures that are beautifully reflected in the shimmering sand. Small, slow moving wavelets keep the area moist as the tide recedes, leaving the sand perfect for castle construction and dribbling, hopefully all to be finished before the sun sets and the tide returns.
David: West Wind, a painting
A young sailor ventures out to sea during a beautiful Southern California sunset that is brilliantly reflected in the surf as it illuminates clouds in the sky and the Dana Point Harbor and Headlands. This piece was created from a picture of a client's son, David, to remember his sailing days in Dana Point.
