Must-see sites vary by region or state but emotions not so much.   Two days before my daughter’s wedding she took our family, just the four of us, to one of her favorite spots along the California coast. Everything was so big - rocks, ocean, beach, sky and the non-stop sound of the surf. The colors cut a picture into my mind I see as clearly this day as I did those years ago. This painting is offered as a visual interpretation of the feelings of family closeness and love I felt so strongly on that stunning fall day.
