‘Laguna Avenue, Coyote Valley’, 24”x12” Oil on Canvas

‘Laguna Avenue, Coyote Valley’, 24”x12” Oil on Canvas by Robert Lewis. Catalog #66. Available directly from the artist.. Coyote Valley is located south of San Jose and north of Morgan Hill. It is an ancient farmland of flat fields of produce and straw. Santa Teresa Boulevard runs down the length of the valley and rough roads branch off from it and dead-end into the hills to the east and the west. This scene of a tree struggling in a 1942 cement culvert is at the west end of Laguna Avenue. #pleinair #pleinairpainting #allaprima #interiordesign #outdoorpainting #contemporaryimpressionism

“Randy’s Whale-watching Shack”

“Randy’s Whale-watching Shack” 14″X11″ plein air oil on linen board. Catalog #940.

“Randy’s Whale-watching Shack” 14″X11″ plein air oil on linen board, catalog #940, was painted on location on Fisherman’s Wharf in Monterey. Met up with Randall Stauss (rstauss.com) and Murray Wagnon (murraywagnon.com) in the downtown plaza area. We poked about, looking for locations, and finally settled on the secondary arm of Fisherman’s Wharf. It was late in the day and got chilly toward the end.

This piece inspires me to go back and paint a larger version. I had to leave out too many details. I’m discovering the wisdom of doing a “study” like this and following up with a larger, more finished plein air piece later. If I do go back and do a larger piece, I will add people in since the place is usually crowded.
