In the Shallows by Doreen Mattingly | Surfing Madonna Third Annual "Save the Ocean"

In the Shallows

The beach outside the Marine Room Restaurant near the La Jolla Shores is a staging area for open water swimmers (like me). There is noting quite as beautiful as the view from the beach after a long swim to the cove or along the cliffs. This painting captures the view looking north at low tide as the last of the marine layer burns off. Painted in the studio from a photograph.

Bio

Doreen Mattingly is an oil painter based in San Diego, California. After a long and rewarding career in higher education, she is finally pursuing her lifetime dream of making art the center of her life.
Her goal as an artist is to produce landscape paintings that capture a “sense of place.” The subjects of most of her paintings are locations that she loves deeply: the Sierra Nevada mountains, Southern California deserts, and of course the California coastline.
She has studied in person with Ramona artist Pat Kelly, and virtually with Idaho artist Scott Christensen.
Her paintings are on display at Southwestern Artists Association, Studio 23, Spanish Village Art Center, Balboa Park, San Diego. <a href="https://swartistsassociation">https://swartistsassociation</a>.com/
