Another day at Heaps Peak



I spent another lovely morning painting at Heaps Peak Arboretum - here in the San Bernardino Mountains. Within a mile loop of pathway is such a variety of terrain and plant life - also other life. On my way back up the path, pulling my red wagon behind me, I encountered a beautiful snake making his way across. I did a little research and learned that he is a California Mountain King snake. What brilliant colours he had.

Today I painted a path through some mountain lilac in bloom.

Pacific Dogwood



I enjoyed a lovely morning painting at Heap's Peak Arboretum - here in the San Bernardino Mountains. The dogwood trees are so beautiful right now. After painting I went for a nice hike - admired some springs, the mountain lilacs, lots of lizards and some really big squirrels! I ate my lunch under a tree and contemplated life. This painting is currently on display at the Riverside Community Art Association Gallery.
