Hello everyone, I am no longer posting on this blog. I have developed a new web site to promote my art. It can be viewed at this web address below.


I want to say thank-you to everyone out there in cyber land that has seen and commented on this blog. Also a big thank-you to all my followers and for staying with me throughout my painting journey. 

All the Best to you all!          And, Keep on painting!

Mountain Park Morning


This is a view from one section of Cypress Hills Provincial Park. My partner and I camped there in our RV the first week of our current vacation. The park offers beautiful scenery and great places to paint. There’s a large lake with rolling hills, a forest, and ponds with tall bulrushes. The day I had in this painting was sunny with no clouds present. It was also quite hot outside with the temperature at 30 Celsius. Luckily I have AC in my RV!  Enjoy!

White Petunias


These Petunias are from a flower pot that sits on a bistro table on my front porch. I painted them from life and wanted to capture only the flowers and not the pot itself, showcasing them against a pleasant teal backdrop. I think it makes the white of the flowers stand out more. I bought the small white easel from Michaels store that compliment and displays it well.  
A very nice piece!

Elbow Falls ~ Late afternoon


This is another view of Elbow Falls in the late afternoon. Such a nice place to spend the day. Lots of walking trails and a great place to set up your easel to paint. One of my favorite places.

Orange Pekoe



I have this lovely porcelain tea cup with lid that I bought some years ago in my travels. Once out of my kitchen cupboard, my idea was to set up a small still life arrangement using an orange and an old table cloth. It soon became obvious as to what to name this piece. Enjoy!

Garden Irises


Planting season is upon us and these white and yellow Irises would look lovely in my garden, but for now I needed a new painting to hang in my sunroom and it looks great on the wall. It also gave me an opportunity to use my new Holbein heavy body acrylic paints that I recently purchased from an art supply store. I'm quite impressed with the quality and vibrancy of these paints. I'll be using them more frequently in some of my paintings. Enjoy this one!
