Evening at High Oaks

This was painted on a glorious evening the day

after solstice. It was the kind of evening that we dream

about during the winter drearies when summer

seems so far away. This hay field, like many other

neighbouring ones, had been mowed that day and the

scent of freshly cut hay filled the evening air.

Oil on canvas 8 x 10.

I am just now getting this posted as things

continue to be quite hectic around here.

I will be taking part in the "15th Annual Gorge On Art" on

Saturday, July 5th, between 11 am and 4pm.

This annual event takes place along the Gorge Waterway

here in Victoria. Over 45 artist will be set up with their

art along the walkway between Tillicum and Admirals Rd.

You will find me at site #7 at the Admirals Rd.

end of the walkway.

Hope to see you there.
