Sunset Sails
This is an original 5" x 7” framed watercolour.
It is was the one of the small colour value paintings I did for Homeward Bound (see post on 01 March 2011) that I had started and have finally finished.
Congratulations to returning collectors Mr. & Mrs. Don Kortkos of Pefferlaw, Ontario on adding this painting to their home.
This is the last day of the 30 Day Art Challenge and I believe I have succeeded with having at least 30 paintings completed since the beginning of June. Thank you for looking at my artwork.

Morning Shadows
The weather here has taken on a decided coolness with the storm from yesterday clearing the humidity and the continuing showers today.
I thought a snow scene would be nice, using a limited palette of mainly alizarin crimson for the sky, snow and shadows; using French ultramarine blue and burnt sienna for the trees.
Thank you to returning collector Ms. Denise Zabloski of Pembroke, Ontario on her purchase of this original 5" x 7" framed watercolour painting.

Lightning
With the storms we have had earlier this month along with the one we had today, I thought I would like to do a painting of lightning.
This is an original 3" x 4” framed watercolour painting.
I masked out the lightning and then painted the stormy sky, and treetops. Once the paint was dry I removed the masking and added a very pale wash of raw sienna.
Congratulations to Mr. Tim Rowat of Omemee, Ontario on adding this painting to his art collection.
Thank you for taking the time to look at my artwork and I hope you will return often.

Lone Pine
This is an original 4" x 6" framed watercolour painting of one of the stately pines that can be found along Highway 507.
Earlier this morning I took a walk through the fields to look at my old pine trees that I had before the storm that came through earlier this month that did so much damage.
I lost one of them. It was snapped near the base by the force of the wind and is now lying on the ground. Later we will chop it up and use the wood next year once it has dried in the fireplace. Its partner is still standing but somehow seems lonely.
Thank you to new collector Mr. William A. Rayner of Markham, Ontario on his purchase of this painting.
I have to head off to the Executive meeting at KAGS now and give the Treasurer's report.
Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog and enjoy the artwork. I hope you will return often.

Balance Beam 4
Balance beam routines require superb balance, strength and knowing exactly where your hands or feet are going to land on a 4" (10cm) wide beam.
One slip and you are off the beam and on the floor. In the event of a fall, once you are back on your feet you have 30 seconds to remount the beam and continue, otherwise you will not be permitted to finish your routine. Falls automatically incur a deduction of 1.0.
Deductions are taken for all errors made while on the beam, on the landing of the dismount or a fall. These also include balance checks such as wobbling to maintain balance or stumbling, failure to do all the elements required in a routine, lapses in control, poor technique and execution and failure to travel the full length of the beam.
Small wonder a perfect score of 10 is rarely achieved.
Balance Beam 4 is an original 15" x 20” framed Prisma pencil drawing and is available for $195.00.
Today is the last day of the Art in the Garden Tour, in Peterborough, Ontario. It is put on by GardenRoute. I will be at Horlings Garden Centre, 3056 Lakefield Road, Lakefield, Ontario from 10am-4pm.
Looking forward to seeing some of you this week end.

Balance Beam 3
A regulation-size balance beam used in competition for elite and junior elite gymnasts measures approximately 4 feet (1.25 meters) in height, approximately 16-1/2 feet (5 meters) in length and is only 4 inches (10 centimeters) in width.
Today's beams are covered in leather or suede to help prevent slipping and they are also sprung to accommodate the stress of high-difficulty tumbling and dance skills.
A beam routine can last up to 90 seconds and must consist of acrobatic elements in different directions (forward/sideward and backward), a full turn on one foot, a connection of two dance elements, one a leap, jump, or hop with legs in 180 degree split, a series of two acrobatic skills and a dismount.
Many things are taken into consideration such as all the elements and all the errors in a routine which are noted by the judges and determine the gymnast's final mark.
Congratulations to new collectors Kawartha Gymnastics Club of Peterborough, Ontario on their selection of this painting.
