"Reds Candy"

A make believe back alley,
with kids playing after school. 
A typical winter scene in Canada not too long ago. 
Watercolour, 22 X 26. 
Available.

"Coffee Cove"


Watercolour, 22" X 22" on paper. 
Another in a series. 
Love to work the colours in these. 
Hope to get another license for a puzzle. 
Will most likely re-do them all as a winter scene. 
Add some hockey players and skaters. 
Fun to be an artist i think. :)
Sold.

"My Town"


The beginning's of a whimsical take on my town, Calgary. Some of the recognizable places are evident like the "Saddledome", "Bow Tower", and "Calgary Tower". The houses in the middle ground represent inner city communities of Sunnyside and Hillhurst. These i plan on doing brightly colored and fun. The city buildings will mostly be grays, blues, purples outlined in white and a sky filled with dancing images and stars. Not too sure what to do with the foreground yet and have to be careful. A painting like this can become too busy in short order. The rows of houses will be the focal point of it all. These are fun to do and i have hopes of doing a series based on local, familiar areas. We shall see. I get sidetracked so easily. Sigh! Hope all are having a great day with new paintings all around. God bless, and Happy New Year.

"Hamlet On Wye"

"Hamlet on Wye" yet another place i might like to live one day. My daughter has struggles with Biology and told me that Fairy Tales are more real to her than science and can't understand why they need to know all that stuff. I have to agree. Fantasy is far easier to understand. This is not #39 but i took a wee break and thought i might post one more. I might try a WIP. Stay tuned!
