A block away from our Montecito Cottage, was the Mt. Carmel Church. It was all adobe and angles, in a conservative tan and brown color. I loved that church with the cacti and succulents and palms surrounding it. I drew it as best I could then came home to paint it. It would not stay tan and brown. It became pink with an orange bell. I call it my wild, passionate church.
