Description

This is Jalama Beach, in sunny Lompoc California, an all expenses paid long-term vacation resort that people would literally kill to get into.   I hear the food is not so good.  Lompoc isn’t only famous for it’s Federal Prison (complete with embarrassing jailbreak story ) Lompoc’s got a historic mission the original of which was unfortunately destroyed in a series of major California earthquakes in 1812 and rebuilt.  Off the coast there was the worst US Navy disaster ever to occur in peacetime the Honda Point Disaster  in 1923 (I’ve mentioned this one before )  and Lompoc was started as a teetotaler community by Albert and Thomas Bloodgood Dibblee . I mean, with a name like Dibblee, what else are you gonna be? Their dad was named ‘Flyer Dibblee’ and he was a judge in Massachusetts. Albert is the guy who started all the bomb-making factories in Hollister (excuse me *cough* ‘energetic materials manufacture’). Thomas had lotsa sheep. However temperance did not last long and Lompoc is now famous for it’s dive bars.   It’s also the location of Vandenberg Air Force base, who occasionally pop off some unusual missile or ufo that all of California spends an evening video taping on their cell phones.  

So head up to Lompoc for a nice day on the beach and be sure to keep a ready eye peeled for a. nuclear missiles, b. escaped spies, c. shipwrecks, but know that right around every corner, there's a nice comfy bar where no one will bother you. Better charge that cell phone, just in case.  

Sheep and bombs. The Honorable Flyer Bloodgood Dibblee. You lose again Xander. You have sheep and a goofball name, but no bombs.

I am certainly not an art critic, or art connoisseur, but that being said, I still think I know art when I see it and without a doubt in my mind, you are an artist. Your art is very enjoyable and so nice to look at. I can get lost in your artwork that takes me out of time and gives me that spiritual feeling of eternity. You have the ability to access your soul.

You forgot to mention the third largest employer of the area. Walmart. Because there's literally nothing else to do out there.

Prison.
Military.
Walmart.

Although the area is TRYING to be all up and coming with wine tasting rooms. Its not going well. And avoid the bars. The cops are dicks and like the camp out in front of them waiting to pull over people as they leave.

You know I love your work and when pointing out short comings it's as a bit of encouragement in this case it may be a bit more of a compliment. I like the color in this image a lot of range of muted color and this painting as has nice composition. The issue and interest which I think is unintended is it appears as layers over each other hills on the sky, water over the land. For some reason those three areas don't seem to be lit by the same sun, color of water may be too vibrant and sky could use a touch more. The main thing I think separates water from land is edge where wave rolls back into the sea. In lower third is very nice but I think as waves land and retreat there is also a wave along the edge where at some point the water is still flowing in while nearby it is flowing away. Mid way in image it appear to be a bit of that but the line continues until it reaches the curve and far separation of water and land. That's how I see this and assume the layer separation was not intentional but it give the image a rather quirky appearance, somewhat dream like and I find that appealing.
