Happy New Year!

It was nice to have few days off after Christmas. My time was spent working on a huge oil painting,running to the art store to buy lino to make prints and then over to the craft store for wool to make a scarf.  I realize I am a bit of a "scanner" when it comes to creating art. I love to trying new things, and sometimes have trouble finishing projects:).

The above acrylic painting was started and finished today..

Saanich Fields

Reminiscent of Italy.

I drive by these fields pretty much every day,

 but yesterday they really caught my eye!

I found this skull deep in the woods at Tofino's
 Botanical Gardens.

Monotype "Kauai Evening"

I create monotypes using simple shapes and colours with the hopes of evoking an emotion of a time or place. I printed "Kauai Evening" thinking of my time spent last October in Kauai. It was wonderful, relaxing, a time to celebrate a wedding and a chance to escape the stress of everyday life.

Monotype "Spring 1"

 Yesterday was the first day warm enough to take our jackets off at the beach, today it's back to wind and clouds.  Oh well, the brief moment of spring like weather was inspiring.
