091407 Artist Kenneth John KEN
one of the greatest things that is common amongst artists is their observations skills of the world around them. when i learned to draft in construction years ago, i could and still do, walk around and i see all the perspective lines back to the horizon. other observations of light and shade, atmospheric perspective, why people look a certain way, what catches my eye first, and on and on and on.
i visited san diego for a few days and most always end up at point loma, it has great dramatic views as the ocean hits against the rocks and cliffs. today i was surprised to see the water very muddy, had to have been dirt sliding into the sea from the cliffs, but the area hadn't any recent rain?? it was high tide and the waves were not very big. a lot of the shore rocks were covered, so most of the water was up to the cliffs.
here's two pics from the same spot, first is looking south, the second looking north.
