I often return to Balboa Park in San Diego, for inspiration. Being an architecture buff, it is one of my favorite places in the US. I can spend hours there relaxing in the gardens, studying the buildings and enjoying the many exhibits in its museums. I especially like seeing the other artists out and about the park creating their masterpieces in plein air. More about this artist
