Rusty Pillons in the San Francisco Bay

Last year when I was at the Surface Design Association/Studio Art Quilt Associates joint meeting in San Francisco I spotted this amazing retaining wall near the hotel. It is above the waterline in this shot but clearly has experienced the ebb and flow of tides over the years. The first image is my (somewhat tweaked) photo. The second and third are pix of a painting I did in my beginning acrylics class a the Palos Verdes Art Center this summer. It's kind of primitive but looks a bit brighter in "person." Was fun to work on.
