View From Highrock Park SOLD

This one is from last Sunday

when, fellow painter, Jeffrey Boron

and I climbed to the top of

Highrock Park and

painted among the spring wildflowers.

(I didn't use any red and it felt most strange!)

When Planets Align SOLD

This is the second time
that this little head turner of a car,

has made it into one of my paintings.
In this one, it's parked on Courtney Street
in front of the Mercurio Gallery.

Quiet Business (by the Green Door Store) SOLD

This couple was deep in

discussion as they passed by

this little "closed sign on the door" store.

I couldn't see a business name anywhere on

on the building so, to me, it's:
--------------------
"Quiet Business - (By the Green Doored Store)".

Insomnia

On Friday I went out for a paint with

the Al Frescos to

Frank Mitchel's farm in Metchosin.

Shortly after I began to paint the

rain started so I moved

underneath the eave of the red shed

to continue.

I couldn't see the sheep

or their lambs from my new position

but, as I continued to paint, I could hear them

ba-a-a-ing from the other side of the wall.

(I titled this painting

with Rose and Jeffrey in mind,

they've both been suffering from

sleeplessness lately.

I wish you both long, deep sleeps and wonderfully wild dreams !)

Tourmaline Morning - Trial Island SOLD

This little painting of the Trial Island Lighthouse

is one that I started last spring on an outdoor

adventure with the Al Fresco non-group.

Finally, this week, I added a bit more

paint to it.

(I remember that it was the morning of Good Friday

and there were Easter eggs on the ground

all around us as we set up on Anderson Hill.

While we painted a swarm of children

appeared and then disappeared along with the eggs.)

The towering Garry oak
