Rancho Palos Verdes

Whale Watching in Palos Verdes

Finished!

Yesterday I was on my way home from an appointment, and after days of rain, it was just stunning outside. I don’t ever take my hometown for granted, I feel like we are truly blessed to live in such a beautiful place.

Since I rarely go anywhere without my sketchbook, I took to the opportunity to stop at the Point Vicente Interpretive Center for a quick sketch. There’s an area for the whale watchers to sit and watch the sea, and they take this very seriously, especially during whale watching season, which I believe we are in the midst of.

It was the end of the day, so the Interpretive Center was just closing.

This is actually a great place to come and hang out. During lockdown, Scott & I would come just before sunset with our Old Fashioned’s in Mason Jars and watch the sun set. If we timed it right, there was someone playing the guitar, and for a moment, you could almost forget what was going on in the world. Of course, the Old Fashioned’s helped considerably.

Painting people is one of my pain points, but I’m working on it! 😂
