PALOS VERDES PENINSULA

Artist Reflections on Palos Verdes:

“My motive for painting Palos Verdes is really about a deep love for this place. While a lot of it has changed since I was a boy, the spirit remains. Still very rural in those days, there were plenty of places to explore and things to inspire the imagination. Our childhood experiences contribute significantly to who we become as an adult. They are the foundation upon which our core beliefs are established. Lunada Bay and the Palos Verdes Peninsula have been deeply ingrained in everyone who grew up there and the memories of the sea, hills, horses, and open space still inspire my work today.”

“At certain times of the year a light fog will move in off the shoreline and surround the area you are standing in. In moments the vast ocean disappears leaving a feeling as if you have been transported to some timeless place hidden from the outside world.”
