Summertime Blues

The dark days of winter will soon be behind us....I'm counting down to December 21 (it gets dark so early!) because gradually the days will get longer.  Well, all days are 24 hours, but more daylight will be welcome.  I've done enough fall and winter painting...my thoughts are turning to spring and summer. SOLD

New Broom

Saw this scene driving the back road out of Gibsons, late spring.  Had to pull the car over and take some photos.  The burst of yellow from the broom was amazing, as were the cast shadows on the rock outcropping.

This is a 16x16" acrylic painting on deep canvas.

Don't Fence Me In

I'm so far behind with posting...this is an 8x8" alley scene.  Alley scenes are some of my favourites.  Just happy little scenes that get me in the mood for painting.  SOLD

Swimming Hole

This is the third little 6x6" bicycle painting.  They were a nice change from birds.  SOLD

Surprise Bouquet

The gentleman that bought the first 6x6" bicycle painting, asked for two more.  I was happy to oblige.

SOLD

Peddlin' Flowers

Just a little fun painting for a change.  6x6 acrylic on deep canvas.  I do a lot of birds this size, and thought something summery would work, too. SOLD

Summer Cottage

Long hiatus from posting, although I have actually been painting.  This is a 24x24" acrylic painting of this marvelous cottage in Lower Gibsons.  I loved the rose trellis and the great shadows it cast.  I tried to stay a bit impressionist and not over paint.  I was actually quite pleased with the way it turned out.

I am so behind in posting!  This little fellow is safe and sound in his tree house.  I don't know if he's ready to fly...it's a big world out there.  Anyway, slowly getting back into painting.

This is an acrylic painting on 6x6" deep canvas.  SOLD
