Spring is Here!

The first full day of spring and a warm sunny one at last,
 although my little visitor came from the land of snow!

New Landscapes




Overlooking
11 x 14 - Acrylic on Canvas



Beyond The Shadow
11 x 14 - Acrylic on Cradled wood Panel

These two paintings are now at the Juan De Fuca Centre. "Overlooking" is one of my favourite spots on the Dallas waterfront and "Beyond the Shadow" is a composite painting  from places in the Fraser Valley.

 Now I'm off to Tofino with friends, to do some storm watching!

Snow!


It doesn't take a lot of snow to snarl traffic in this city, you might notice a light dusting on the tree. 
I took this picture while inching along to work this morning. 

I'm hoping for a snow day tomorrow!

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..

Week-end Project




After sorting and organizing some boxes of stuff in my studio,
 I found some old linocuts that I had made a couple of years ago.
Thought I would try and set aside some time this week-end and create some more!!

Small Treasures Invite


Stormy



The last of the leaves have blown away and the storms have begun,
 but I don't mind, I love hearing the wind whistling and the rain against my window.

Saanich Fields

Reminiscent of Italy.
I drive by these fields pretty much every day,
 but yesterday they really caught my eye!
