Colorful abstract geometric painting by Texas artist Christa Peyton inspired by 1980s madras plaid shorts and South Padre Island coastal memories, displayed above white desk in modern interior

My favorite madras plaid shorts in my 80’s wardrobe inspired what became my coastal collection…taking me through my South Padre 1989 shenanigans leading up to my current favorite beach town visits.

La Jolla
$0.00

Locals surfing on their lunch break, palm trees in all shapes and  sizes, orange and lemon trees on most every corner...La Jolla left me feeling inspired. Corals, limey greens and lemony hues with Pacific ocean blues in thick layers upon layers.

The linear pattern of bold pinks, greens, blues and lemony hues are inspired by the "Bu" vibe and the sleek, sun bathed homes on its coastline. Side note…Malibu Barbie and I share the same birth year, 1971.
