"Three on the Salish Sea"

Winter Solstice was all sunny and bright and full of LIGHT 

for the Traditional Winter Solstice 

Linnyland Painting Adventure - UNTIL the paint was 

squeezed out on the pallette!!

Still, it was a JOYJOYJOY 

to be out in Nature, on the edge of the Salish Sea, amongst the Otters, 

Eagles, Kingfishers and the Looky-Lou Puppers!!

"Salish Sea Islet"

Once upon a few weeks ago 

the Linnyland painting adventure 

destination for a summery April morning was Port Renfrew.

In Victoria the sky was clear and the temperature

 was unseasonable warm,

 in Sooke there was a bit of "certain to burn off" fog,

 in Jordan River the fog was so thick that the only view was fog. 

And towards Port Renfrew?

So, boomerang plan for this Linnyland painting adventure; 

travel backwards, find a view and paint fast. 

Muir Creek Beach, Sooke BC.

(Normally, on Southern Vancouver Island, 

the Field Chamomile bloom from around May to August but 

on this late afternoon February paint the world looked and felt 

just like a summer evening.) 

And, for all of my eastern friends; 

on the island (at present) it's a rainy evening in paradise.
