Golden California Coast - Pigeon Point Lighthouse Framed Print

On my so far only day to really explore in California, I spent a not-so-harsh day roaming the California coast, basically bouncing from beach to beach as I made my way up the coast from Santa Cruz.

The denouement of the afternoon was stumbling upon a little beach just below Pigeon Point lighthouse. That was where the afternoon sun really came into full effect. From that vintage point, the historic but still functional lighthouse was nearly in silhouette. I stood there for quite some time taking photos of the lighthouse with the rolling waves in the foreground, but this is my favorite moment, when a friendly bird politely got itself in just the right spot for an iconic lighthouse scene.

Life is full of happy surprises. After just over a decade working in the 9 to 5 cube world, I threw caution to the wind to follow my dreams of being a full time visual artist.

My body of work is wide ranging from photographic scenes of far away places, more near and dear locations, and more fanciful artwork. It's all crafted with a heartfelt love for finding the beauty in little captured moments. My artwork also hangs on walls near and far from private homes to businesses who have chosen to decorate with my art. Whether you've purchased one piece or a house full or you simply admire and share with your friends, your patronage of my art is...
