The Window

Today is the second day of the Art Cunanan workshop. We worked on three different paintings today.

This is a quick watercolour painting of sunlight shining through a window.

I would like to thank returning collector Mme. Cecile Desrochers of Ste-Ramon, Quebec on her purchase of this painting.

Horse Sketches II

While waiting for my friend Joanne to get her horse ready for a riding lesson I did some sketches of the other horses as they relaxed in their stalls.

It was interesting to see the different attitudes of the horses as well as the different types of heads depending on the breed all within a short stretch of the barn's alleyway.

Horse Sketches II is an original 9" x 12" graphite pencil drawing and is available matted and shrink wrapped for $95.00.

A Spring Bouquet

While autumn is rapidly approaching and the colours will soon change on the trees, I am thinking about the flowers of spring.

I recently planted a number of bulbs and will have to wait to see them poking their way up through the snow in late March.

The snowdrop and daffodil bulbs I planted inspired this painting of the earliest of my spring flowers.

This is an original 5-1/2" x 15" framed watercolour painting and is available for $275.00.

Please excuse the slight blurring as I had forgotten to take the picture before I framed it up and it is through non glare glass. SOLD

Rural Winter

We are already past the middle of September and the leaves are starting to change. It won't be long before there is snow on the ground.

I just felt like working on something loose and easy without a lot of detail and this is the result.














This original 3" x 5" framed watercolour is available for $125.00.

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

Swampland I

This is a section of the Snelgrove Brook at the bottom end of the lower field on the farm side of the property.

You can walk to the edge of the water and go fishing for Brook Trout.












The birch trees in this painting are no longer there, as the beaver which lives in the Brook have taken them down and used them in building their dam.

Swampland I is an original 3-1/4" x 5-1/4" matted and shrink wrapped, pen and ink drawing available for $25.00.

Wash Day I

We left St. Paul, Minnesota last night and are on our way back home.

While Ron stopped to clear the load through customs at Port Huron near Sarnia, Ontario, I worked on this drawing of an old farm house with the laundry on the wash line blowing in the breeze.

While I enjoyed being away for the week in the truck and being able to spend extra time with Ron it is also nice to be back home on the farm.

Wash Day I is an original 6" x 9” pen and ink drawing which when framed will be available for $165.00.

Sail on the Horizon I

We left Winnipeg in the evening and are heading to St. Paul, Minnesota.

Ron will drive through the night and I will get some bunk time then, since there is basically very little to see at night.
 
In the morning at a rest stop I noticed on the map that there was a place called Little Canada which was just outside of St. Paul.

After Ron dropped the trailer and handed in the paperwork, we went out for lunch in Rosedale.

Afterward we went to find Little Canada. It was less than 15 minutes away and I got pictures of the city sign with the name on it.

While Ron slept until his load heading back to Canada was ready I worked on another sketch that I had started in Cuba.

I inked it in and once the ink is totally dry I will remove my pencil notations.

Sail on the Horizon I is an original 6" x 7”  pen and ink drawing which when framed will be available for $165.00.
