Artist Comments

 

There's a parking area and a trail that leads down to the bluffs on the north side of Fort Bragg, California. Lots of folks go there for the view of the ocean, the exercise and to collect bits of sand-polished glass from a sheltered cove in the area.
Another thing that the area has in abundance is ground squirrels. Lots and lots of them, and they aren't particularly shy of people. When I sat down to eat my lunch while painting this, the squirrels immediately began to approach me. I was saved from having to fend them off though, by the fact that there was a family with small children nearby. These children wanted very much to pet some wild squirrels. The squirrels wanted very much for the little humans to keep their hands to themselves.
I got to eat my lunch in peace while watching the show.
