This painting is of an alley in the Riviera Village in Redondo Beach. There are alleys all over our beach communities. The cost of housing is high and there are a lot of homes tucked away hither and thither. By walking around you can find little gems where someone has made a home in a small place - hung a few twinkle lights and put up a beach umbrella. The painting is not matted and is 10inches wide and 14 inches high. It was painted with M.Graham watercolor paints on Arches 140lb paper. Like all of my paintings it is original and is ready to ship.
