A Classic Evening - Fulford Harbour SOLD

From start to finish this painting was a joy to paint!

We're back on Salt Spring Island on a classic summer evening

with a pair of vintage gems cruising by each other

down in "feel good Fulford Harbour".

This painting is a gift from Jane to Robb,

(who I met one classic summer evening when I was painting en plein air

atop of Salt Spring Island's Mount Maxwell).

Again, Happy Birthday Robb!

----------------------------

And, to all that are wondering, YES,

I am happy to consider commissions

of Linnyland/Linnyism style paintings

for your gifts and otherwise.

SOLD

Studio Cat

This painting is from last Thursday when I was invited

to give an acrylics painting demonstration

with a great group of artists,

the Painters Group of the Juan de Fuca Arts Club.

We all had fun during the adventure in Linnyland.

Next week I am doing a mini workshop

on painting Linnyism buildings

and I've asked the participants to bring a photo

of their home or studio to work/play from.

This painting and the photo of it will be an example

of where one might be going;

it has two painters painting (up there with their hands in the air)

on the fourth floor - plus one studio cat.

September - Turner's SOLD

It seems that it's the season of

small paintings.

(Four of my galleries have recently
asked for some of my small paintings.)
This little painting is of one of my favourite
Victoria landmarks, the Turner's building. Yes, I've painted it
a few times and tomorrow I'll post another.

Little Red Lighthouse SOLD

It seems that I paint

lighthouses

at this time of year.

Based on my composition I

thought that maybe it was from a desire

for balance and boundaries

during the holiday season but

maybe it's simply a need for more light

at this time of year

- or perhaps the message is to lighten up!

One Day Last Summer

This studio piece grew from,

'Late Afternoon - Lake Cowichan'

an en plein air painting from an

"one day last summer adventure" to Cowichan Lake.

(It was the afternoon that I swam amongst the

orange bellied newts.)

It's entirely possible that me painting this painting

may have inadvertently caused summer weather

to linger longer here in Victoria;

I was able to have breaky out on the deck

on the 4th of November - unheard of in our climes!

(Oddly, now that the painting is finished

the autumn weather has started...)
