"Special Spot"

This year's Linnyland painting from the

Art Gallery of Greater Victoria TD Art Gallery Paint-In 2015. 

And, remember for each year that 
I've been invited to create and demonstrate 
at this wonderful event I've painted a location from 
somewhere along Moss Street (Victoria BC Canada) 
-- although if you rather, 
this painting can be of anywhere that you 
imagine it to be.
This is the 10th Moss Street Linnyland painting!

"Reefer"

Blue Moon Week in Linnyland included; 

studio time (stay tuned...), 

a wee Linnyland painting adventure where, 

as I zoomed in on an old ship 

(that rumour has, will be sunk to create a diving reef), 

the many "lookers" who wandered by included 

the trio of Lorenzo the dog, Blue Eyed Daughter 
and her Blue Eyed Father

 (who was a Robert Genn doppelganger if I ever saw one 

-- although I have no idea of Robert Genn's eye color) 

and who shared samplings of their freshly 

picked (dark blue) blackberries, a swimming adventure 

in the blue-green waters of Secret Lake with Otters, 

blue Dragonflies and a blue-grey Kingfisher, 

the scent of Sweet Grass, 

blue skies of swooping Swallows, 

a meadow of Queen Anne's Lace, 

more blue skies this time full of Turkey Vultures, 

and another swim under a blue sky in the blue-green waters 

of Not A Secret Lake

 and last night's orange Blue Moon!
