#821 Pacific Grove's Point Pinos Lighthouse It can get pretty cold and foggy along the California coast at Pacific Grove. When I had a chance to go there I naturally wanted to go painting. This day was so cold and windy, setting up my easel was not a good idea. So I tried an experiment ... paint from inside my car! Now painting with oils inside a car is not a good idea, but I came prepared! I bought my gouache paint! Gouache is opaque watercolor, so I figured if I got some on my car seats I could wash it off. I was lucky none spilled. This is the little painting I got from inside my car. Check out my setup! Location: Pacific Grove, CA CHECK OUT MY BLOG TO SEE HOW I PAINTED THIS FROM MY CAR! Also available as a note card on my gallery page. #821 Pacific Grove's Point Pinos Lighthouse It can get pretty cold and foggy along the California coast at Pacific Grove.
