“Morning Sail” by Sarah Delong. The natural environment with its patterns, shapes and textures has fascinated me since childhood. According to Sarah, “Capturing the light as it quickly dances over the landscape and objects is always a challenge as I paint Plein Air. Watercolor’s transparent glowing colors and its ability for colors to blend on paper allow me to have ta loose realistic style. I am in my element painting by a rushing stream or painting boats in a harbor but I also enjoy the complexity of people’s faces, animals and flowers.
⠀⠀
I am a midwest transplant that now makes Morro Bay, California her home. I am a signature member of the Central Coast Watercolor Society and Iowa Watercolor Society and have exhibited in many shows in Minnesota, Iowa and California”. —tg

“Horses on Beach” by Jari deHam. Jarien de Ham has lived on the Central Coast since 1974 with her husband, Gerald, and has raised two sons here. Her interest in art began as a child, then on to a BA from UCSB, working as an artist from home, followed by classes in Chinese painting and calligraphy at Cuesta College in the early 2000’s. This added to a lifelong interest in Asian culture from martial arts to Zen Buddhism leading, naturally to study at an art academy in Hangzhou, China. It is ever a challenge to master traditional techniques as well as push the boundaries of spontaneity. The climate and locale of the Central Coast continues to inspire and feed the need to express landscapes and forms with an Asian feel. —tg

Artwork by Linda Bench. Linda likes to draw inspiring natural scenes—coastal panoramas, oak covered hillsides, flowers and wildlife. While she’s always enjoyed drawing and art, she learned to draw well while studying landscape architecture in college. In 1998, she began focusing her artistic efforts on colored pencil drawing, and has slowly built up her portfolio.
⠀⠀
Each picture takes about 20 to 25 hours to complete, depending on the complexity of the background. She starts with a line drawing, slowly building up multiple layers of color to achieve the depth and intensity she’s looking for. Linda lives with her family in the mountains between Morro Bay and Atascadero. —tg

Artwork by Dottie Phelps Visker. Dottie says “In my backyard I get inspiration-Colors in the flowers, sky and birds. I like to paint outside and inside. I adore the sunshine and have to be in a sunny room near the window. Hopefully I am wearing something new-it always seems to inspire me. Or is it that I’m already inspired and that’s why I went shopping and bought something new to wear because I’m happy?

I hope this art will enliven your surroundings and make many sensations! Enjoy and live life to the fullest”. —tg
