| photo of tafoni and muscle shell at Salt Point State Park, CA |
Salt Point State Park includes the Kruse Rhododrendron Preserve, an underwater park where sea life is protected, Gerstle Cove, where divers and kayakers can be seen, hunting for abalone, and the tafoni rock formations. We had a wonderful camping trip here this Memorial Day weekend. View more photos from our trip here. One of my sons wrote a 4th grade, "California Report" on the park.

Beautiful! Great energy. And you caught the magical luminescence of the abalone shell in a few simple brush strokes. Kudos!
Beautiful!
Thank you, Robin! So nice to get a couple comments on the blog. :)
Thank you, Liza. One of the most amazing things about painting is that we paint the color and shapes we see up close, and then when we step back to view... It can be magical. :). I did not think I could paint an abalone shell when I started! Surprised even myself.
