Painter Wayne Thiebaud's works offer a vibrant and inspirational color palette that is unmistakeably Californian in it's point of view.

Saturated and glowing, his varied subject matter, whether he's painting cupcakes or tower blocks, or bathers on the beach, all twinkles fiercely, magnified by the bright light of the West Coast and popping with pulsating outlines, at times green, purple and bright blue.

You can see over a hundred of his optimistic, sun-kissed works at the Pasadena Museum of California Art now through January 31st.
