Little Lennard Light SOLD

Haiku Ode to Lennard:

~

Early, not yet bright

on Chesterman Beach painting

Lennard Island light.

~

The sunrise for the second paint of my recent Tofino 
Linnyland painting adventure was spectacular - and without wind! 
I wasn't aware that I'd set up to paint beside an entrance 
to the beach until the first group
 of early morning surfers arrived behind me and

excitedly exclaimed , "SWEET!!!".

I was focused on my painting 
so I thought that they were, too.

My toque was getting a bit tight 
before I twigged that the surfers were (of course!) 
referring to the great wave conditions. 

Hat fitting more appropriately, I continued painting.

Soon after, a couple of the freshly suited up surfers offered,
 "Like your depiction of Lennard Light", 
as they ran past me towards
 their sweet waves.
