I’ve always admired my neighbour’s house, especially in the autumn when his pretty little maple tree is blazing with reds and oranges.

It was chilly out as the Al Frescoes painted at Swan Lake and although I imagined that the coots swimming nearby could be cold I’m sure that it was I who was freezing! 14×16 Pastel on Pastelmat

Waiting for Lunch

When I sat down to paint this subdued landscape it seemed devoid of animal life. It was a very chilly day and even the birds seemed to be hiding. Until…I saw in the distance a pair of bald eagles. Clearly they had an excellent vantage point from which to hunt for lunch!

I painted beside a relaxing pond towards the end of summer. This little frog sat still for the longest time. I like to think she was preparing for the long sleep ahead.

This painting was created at the Insight Festival at Fort Rodd Hill and Fisgard Lighthouse NHS at part of the plein air painting competition. It was a beautiful day with a hazy summer sky.

It was a wonderful day at Langford for their first annual celebration of Canada Day! I had the chance to paint lots of people and interact with them too – especially kids who wanted to be put in the painting.
