Crab Season

Pillar Point Harbor in Winter

In Northern California we don’t have snow to signal the arrival of the winter holiday season but we do have Dungeness crab. In this piece, I am celebrating crab season at Half Moon Bay’s Pillar Point Harbor. I love the way the sun as it lowers hits the crab bins along with all the activity as boats head in and out and unload their catch. The boat on the right is the Miss Moriah which I’ve already painted several times.
