Winter Bridge 1

It didn't take very much to complete this little painting that I had started in the workshop with Margaret Roseman (see post on 01 May 2010).

I added more growies into the foreground and a suggestion of rock shapes into the bridge.

It is an original 4" x 6" framed watercolour available for $145.00.

Thank you for coming to look at my artwork.

Evening Reflections

This is an original 4-3/4" x 6-3/4” watercolour, when framed will be available for $125.00.

The big fluffy clouds touched with the setting sun's glow create a mosiac in the evening sky.

It will be framed this weekend along with a number of other pieces that I need to get ready for upcoming shows at the Norwood Legion Hall - Branch 300 and Griffin's Garden Centre (see post on 02 June 2010 for more information).

Rain Storm

After the days of rain we have had here it was nice to see the sun come out again. Everything seems so much cleaner, greener and brighter.














This is an original 4-1/2" x 6-1/2” framed watercolour and is available for $125.00.

Peaceful Evening 1

This is the other landscape painting I had started in the workshop with Margaret Roseman (see post 01 May 2010.)












The island and trees on the right side of the painting were painted and the water below the island was darkened.Next I added a touch of the brighter green into the tops of the left side trees to complete the painting.

It is an original 4" x 6" framed watercolour available for $145.00.

Buckhorn Artists' Group Blog - Show Updates

I have updated the Buckhorn Artists' Group blog with a listing of shows some of the various artists in the Group are exhibiting their work in during the month of June.

OSWOA - Buildings

Buildings often add interest to a painting whether they are a part of the background, or the focal point.

I have fourteen sketches of buildings from my class with George Elliott (see posting from 27 April 2010) that I can work into paintings as well as finishing Winter Barns which I had worked on in his class.

Getaway 1

ACEO - Birch Song 1-4

Yesterday and today I have been combining two of my favourite things together in some small paintings. My favourite tree which is the birch with my favourite season autumn.

Since I live on the top of a hill I overlook over 600 acres (242ha) of mixed forest (deciduous and coniferous trees) and when the leaves change into their autumn colours the view is breathtaking.

Birch Song 1

Since I have completed four paintings over the last two days, as well as having started another three paintings which are in various stages of completion I think I am doing fairly well with my first 30 day challenge.

Although this is only day three, we will see what I can manage to complete by the end of the month.
