Creek with Sandbar (Click here to view eBay results)

This is a scene of a creek in an area called Elfin Ranch south of San Marcos California, in a quiet canyon in the hills above Torrey Pines and Del Mar. I went there with Dave Darrow looking for a place to plein air paint, but eventually left for the beach at La Jolla. We painted at La Jolla both days, but I did get alot of shots of this quiet creek before we left. It has everything a painter would want. Clean water, rushing and still pools, massive rocks in the creek and walls of rock stacked on the side from centuries of erosion and all kinds of plants and trees.
