Fountaingrove Golf Course
Santa Rosa, CA
9-12:30
My assignment this week is to paint with a green/red color palatte. Because of where we are in the season, this painting would either have to be vineyards, a park, or a golf course. We have done several vineyards so that one needs a rest. I chose the golf course since they have some very appealing views. I'll be painting along St. Andrews Drive near 3788 St. Andrews.
Directions:101 to Fountaingrove Parkway. East on Fountaingrove Parkway a bit over 1 mile, take a left at the second light onto Thomas Lake Harris. Drive past Paradise Ridge Winery and take the 2nd left onto St. Andrews Drive. Good golf course views along the road.
Golf courses can look so park like. I did miss using any blue.

Sonoma Coast Tasting Room
555 Highway 1
Bodgea Bay, CA
9-12:30
The weather still has a chance of rain for Monday, but we haven't been to the ocean in awhile so I'm up for trying it. We can meet at the tasting room. There are views around it, and a bathroom will be available. I have to do a split complement blue color scheme, the coast would be great for that. The pier is just up the road a bit if that is more to some people's liking.Monday Nov 9
