After looking at #morrorock nearly every day for over 25 years, I finally decided to paint it.  I dabbled around with sketches before but only now decided to actually create a serious painting of it.  The tremendously huge rock located just off the town of #MorroBay #California was frequently capped with clouds, and I wanted to include that in the painting.
This #morrorockpainting is on an 11x14 inch stretched canvas in a silver frame.
 
Morro Rock, standing at a height of 581 feet (177 m)[1], is among a collection of 13 geological formations in #SanLuisObispo County in California. These formations include volcanic plugs, remnants of extinct volcanoes, as well as lava domes and sheetlike intrusions. They stretch from Morro Bay in the north to #IslayHill in the south.  Primarily composed of dacite, a volcanic rock, Morro Rock also contains petrified bird feces that have compacted into the structure over time.  These formations date back to the #Oligoceneepoch, which occurred approximately 27 to 23 million years ago.
