Description
California Tower in Balboa Park, San Diego, at sunset – digital painting made from a photo where I made some AI inpainting, edited the result, and at the end I added watercolor painting texture. This watercolor painting captures the California Tower in San Diego’s Balboa Park silhouetted against a vivid sunset sky. The structure rises with its recognizable Spanish Colonial architecture, flanked by palm trees that hint at the Southern California setting. The sky is alive with splashes of orange, red, and gold, layered with fluid, expressive brushwork. In the foreground, trees and brush are rendered in dark tones, giving the painting a sense of depth and contrast. The blending of watercolor techniques and the striking silhouette of the tower lend the piece an energetic, almost dreamlike atmosphere. The California Tower is a prominent landmark and part of the historic California Quadrangle in Balboa Park, San Diego. It stands at 198 feet tall and features a unique Spanish design with Mexican-style details and color. The tower is composed of three tiers, shifting from a quadrangle to an octagon and then a circle.
