These stucco walls became JG's canvas. The owner got a little bit of everything that JG had to
offer.  The walls were all white inside and out. JG spent a month painting and when she left, the
only white was on the pillars. The approach to the house was on the desert.  There was a mural of
the sunrise over the ocean and one of the sunset over the desert and the ocean.  Lunch times
were spent watching the whales, pelicans and dolphins playing in the surf on the ocean side of the
house.  Moonrise over the Sea of Cortez.....Ahhhhhhhhh....Where's my margarita?
Front door (inside the courtyard):
Morning sky blue to the left; shades of soft teal-blue sunset to the right. And a warm front door.
Casa front, faces the desert.
The courtyard inside the
front gate is a blending of
fresh morning ocean
sunrise and desert/ocean
sunset colors. They both
come together at the front
door.  A trompe l'oeil mural
of a morning sunrise over
the ocean on one side and
one of sunset over the
desert and ocean, viewed
by the house cat, on the
other.
A wonderful cool teal
wash over a white
wall is the backdrop
for this headboard
painting in the
master bedroom.  A
torn-paper look
around the painting
keeps the relaxed
feel to the room.

A rich green wash over the gold living room
wall frames the wall of windows that looks out
over the ocean, merging land and water and
softening the water's glare. On either end of
the wall are large branches of bamboo
symbolizing the growth of  relationships and
manifesting abundance for the owner. I think
she manifested pretty good.
Giant stylized shells
frame the doorways into
the house on the ocean
side. Notice the watery
teal wash on the walls of
the ocean side vs. the
warm terra cotta wash on
the front wall of the
house. The colors blend
seamlessly on the side
where the house's
angles provide clean
separations.
