Evening Sky

The day is drawing to a close, and a recent storm is gradually clearing as the clouds start to break up.















With the colours of the sunset trying to burst through the clouds, it brings the hope that tomorrow will be a sunny day.

This is an original 5" x 6-3/4” framed watercolour for $125.00.

Heather's Pine

Today I was at the Kawartha Artists' Gallery and Studio sitting the Spring into Summer show.

While I was there, I worked on this small painting which helped to pass the time on a quiet day.

This is a tree I have painted many times, in various seasons and times of day; I never grow tired of painting it.

Beside the beauty of this tall and stately pine I am usually visiting with my friend and fellow artist Heather Grant, since this tree is on her property.

For this show, it was nice to see a wall with just small paintings hanging together, instead of them getting lost between much larger pieces.















This is an original 5" x 6-3/4” watercolour painting, and when framed will be available for $135.00. SOLD

Day is Done

An original 5-1/4" x 6-1/2” framed watercolour for $125.00.

The winds whips the lose snow around the trees and pushes the clouds across the evening sky. The after glow of the sunset remains for a short time as the sky gradually darkens with the coming of night.















Thank you for taking the time to look at my artwork and I hope you will return often.

Pristine Beauty

Early March when Winter is gradually losing its tight grip on the season as Spring is trying to bring back the warmth to a frozen land. Rivers and lakes are starting to thaw as ice and snow slowly melt.

It is a peaceful time, a time of reawakening. Very soon the first snowdrops will brave the cold to defiantly show their blooms; a herald to the coming and much welcome change.

This is an original 7-3/4" x 11-1/4” framed watercolour available for $295.00. SOLD

The Mustang

There is so much history about the Plains Indians and their horses, that it would seem that the horse had been there all along. It is hard to believe that it wasn't until Cortez landed in Mexico in 1519 that the horse was re-introduced to North America.

This original 10" x 11-1/2" graphite pencil drawing when framed will be available for $165.00. SOLD

















This image will be available as a package of 10 cards complete with envelopes for $8.00.

It will also be available as an 11" x 14" decorator print for $10.00. Prints are shipped flat and unframed..

Forgotten

The days are getting longer and warmer. Soon school will be finished for another year and the children will be off for the summer.














Many of the fields have already been mowed for first cut hay and the cicadas can be heard from the tops of trees. Most of the fencing has been completed for the season but there are a few places were a section of fence may have been forgotten.

This is an original 10-1/4" x 14-1/2” framed watercolour for $295.00.
