Monotype "Early Morning"

Time has passed again, much too quickly!
  I see these trees outside my living room window,
 the light behind them is ever changing
 and there's usually a crow sitting on top of the tallest one.

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.

Art Changeover Coast Collective

Three framed monotypes ready for the changeover at Juan De Fuca Rec Centre and Crossroads Pub & Grill. Left to Right  "Memories of Kauai", "Dreams of Africa" & "Valley Fields". The detail isn't great but a different perspective is always good.

Monotype "On the Island"


Another monotype, this one with my favourite colour combination. I'm forturnate to live a couple of blocks from the ocean, it never fails to help me de-stress.

Monotype - "On the Way to Work"


I love the simplicity of trees in winter.  The disappearing edges and the floating quality of the trees hopefully gives one the feeling of passing by but not missing the moment.

Monotype "On the Way Home"


The past few weeks I've been working on monotypes, the process of monotypes can be found here and here. The actual printing can be tricky but with time and patience I have managed to print a few that I like. Stay tuned for more!

Nostalgia

                                                                                                                                                 


When I don't have a lot of time I find myself painting landscapes, putting paint on canvas without alot of preliminary thought gives me the fix I sometimes need.

A Vague Resolution

I admire people who are able to make lists and outline their goals for the coming year, for instance my daughter and her husband meticulously write down resolutions and put them in their advent calendar to be read and reviewed the following year.

This year I do have a recurring thought that could be considered a resolution “Do something with the art blog”. I haven't made any lists nor do I have specific goals, just more discipline and focus on my part. Let's hope I can stick to it!
