Yes you can paint there. Most artists that I have seen are in the main lane to the right of the entrance drive or near the main buildings. Some of the trails on the north side of the park were disappointedly closed last week.
Pay admission then paint. Go to the rocks at low tide
We were just there and there was someone painting a beautiful picture. But I don't know if they got prior authorization.
Its a Sate Park, as long as you abide by the parks hours, I wouldnt see a problem with this. Maybe call the Park headquarters for further information.
I don't know for sure, but I don't see why not. We took pictures, so a painting is a picture, isn't it?
