Back to School!

I'm so excited to be starting to teach a class this week in the painting department at CCA. It will be great to back there. I have started a sister blog for the class at: themostbeautifuljanuaryever.cca.edu -- so check it out and see what my students are thinking about!

Sunset on Ocean Beach

Right now in San Francisco we are experiencing the most beautiful January ever. The rest of the country is a frozen block of ice, while Gov. Jerry Brown has just declared California in a drought emergency. Voluntary water rationing has been requested, and with no rain forecasted for 3 months, mandatory rationing seems certain. It appears likely that we'll burn for this come summer, but I have never, in the 18 years I've lived here, experienced such perfect weather.
