Turban Squash I - A Work in Progress

This is one of the Turban Squash that was a part of one of the still life displays from last month (see posting on 04 October 2013).

I started this one while sitting in the afternoon at the Kawartha Artists' Gallery along with a couple of other small pieces (see posting on 05 October 2013).













I will post this painting at a later date once it has been completed.

Thank you for coming to look at my artwork and I hope you will return often.

Onions - Three Works in Progress

These are three pieces I started last month while sitting at the Kawartha Artists' Gallery (see post on 04 October 2013).













Onion Solo

The onions that were in the still life display on had a lot of character and I worked on smaller versions of them.













Onion Duet

I will post these at a later date as them are finished.













Onion Trio

Sunflowers, Squash and Onions - A Work in Progress

This is one of two paintings I started during the Still Life class at KAGS last month.

It was an interesting arrangement of a basket filled with sunflowers, together with a pumpkin, turban squash and onions.

I will post this painting at a later date once more of it has been completed.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog and look at the artwork.

Knoepfli Inn - A Work in Progress

This is a sketch I started of the Knoepfli Inn from across the road in the building they refer to as the "Farmhouse".













After doing my drawing I only had time to paint in the foreground tree before the light shifted and I stopped painting. I have photographs as reference for when I work on this painting at a later date.












We had to leave the Knoepfli Inn after breakfast this morning and head back home.










Once I return home I have to go to KAGS and pick up my paintings from the Rural Scenes show which closes at 4:00pm today.








Thank you for looking at my artwork.

Foggy Forest 1

Today I am heading for the Knoepfli Inn in Magnetawan, Ontario.

On my way to meet the other members of the KAGS Outdoor Painters Group in Buckhorn I stopped to do a quick sketch of the trees shrouded in the morning fog.














I am looking forward to spending time at the Inn and drawing and painting the wonderful scenery.

I hope you will return often to see the postings.
