This Weekend in San Luis Obispo

This past weekend I flew the coop for some air and perspective and man, did I get it. It’s amazing how California is so diverse, that just one town over has a whole different culture, or subculture if you choose to call it so. Traveling about 300 miles through towns and cities I stopped often to feel the vibe. Mixed with goods and bads, but nothing outrageous or dastardly. I feel like society, at least from where I viewed has become a parody of itself. I am a bit of a shut in, so perhaps I am a bit salty or biased.

I didn’t take many tourist pictures because why? Somethings I just thought were cool visuals, so I took a few.

“Not Even Close”  I enjoy painting women that are not always considered the most desirable. They tend to have more depth.
