"Butterfly Beach Sunset"

Ann and I used to take "drives in the country" almost every day around Santa Barbara. In 2004 and 2005 we frequently ended up around Butterfly Beach in Montecito. We saw some spectacular sunsets there and I painted two of them, this being the first. This one is more orange than the other one, with the sun throwing off it's orange rays. I like the way the sun skips across the water, a bit more yellow here, more red there, all against the various values of blue.
