“Coaster at Dusk (Giant Dipper Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk)” oil on canvas, 30 x 48″. The third painting of my GD series 🙂 I think it IS art– the incredible structure, especially for its time, is a masterpiece of engineering! A provider of joy! A reliever of stress and life’s challenges, you get to just let go and scream it all out. Our first visit was in the early 80s as kids with our folks, and my most recent was last Sunday with my 78 year old dad who had a blast. Thanks to those keeping it rolling and fabulous. Long live our historic coasters and happy 100th birthday to Giant Dipper!
Voted the World’s Best Seaside Park
