Half Moon Bay

My first weekend living in CA gave me the chance to visit Half Moon Bay. The drive over was stunning, I can't wait to see more of the landscape.

I made early sketches before 1 small painting on the beach. By late morning the surfers had been replaced by kite flyers. In the town pumpkin fever had taken hold with many locals preparing for the "Art & Pumpkin" festival next weekend. Not sure exactly what that entails but my offering would be a pumpkin inspired painting of this intriguing whale skull on display near the beach.
