'First Light-Oak Bay',(Canadian west coast Impressionism, Oak Bay, southern Vancouver Island, oil painting)

This is my second go at this painting. It was

developed from a smaller plein air piece last

spring. However I was never quite happy with

how it turned out. Well today I put it up on my easel

and tried to figure out what it needed and

I think I may have done it this time.

Course who knows what I may think in

couple of days or weeks or...hmmm!

Oil on linen 18 x 14.

'November Sky',(Canadian west coast Impressionism, fall skies, Swan Lake, Victoria BC, oil painting)

More clouds again everyone!

I'm also trying to keep the foreground quite simple

and loose but interesting.

'After the Storm',(Canadian west coast Impressionism, surfing Jordan River, French Beach, Vancouver Island)

Our area had a number of wind and rain storms

over several days recently. Once the weather

settled down I made a short trip to Jordan River.

This is a well known surfing area about 70km

north of Victoria along the west side of the

island. There were some surfers out on the waves,

(no I wasn't one of them),

however that wasn't the reason I was there.

I took quite a few reference photo's of the waves

breaking on the beach but due to the strong

winds in that spot we backtracked to

the somewhat protected French Beach

set up our easels and got to it.

It was getting almost dark by the time

we packed up, but what a wonderful spot.

Oil on wood panel 11 x 14.

'Autumn Gold',**SOLD**(Canadian west coast Impressionism, autumn skies, fall colour)

As I have mentioned before I really love painting clouds

and this studio piece was no exception.

Partly photo reference and part memory/imagination

I tried to capture that wonder and magic of

early evening in the late fall.

'Highrock Contours" *SOLD*(Canadian west coast Impressionism, Highrock Park, Esquimalt BC, Garry Oak Ecosystems Recovery Team)

I was able to get out for a quick paint last Sunday at

Highrock park once again. As you can see we had a very

cool cloudy day, something I find very challenging to paint.

The lovely rounded rock contours covered with a coat of

winter moss and the dancing Garry oaks

grabbed my attention this day.

Oil on wood panel 6 x 8.

'Winter Walk',(Canadian west coast Impressionism, winter, snow, southern Vancouver Island)

Winter on southern Vancouver Island often

happens without snow, (seldom without lots of

rain), but we do get real winter

from time to time. When that happens I do

my best to re-supply my 'winter' reference

photo library. This piece was painted using a

photo I took after a January snow

storm back in 2007.

Oil on canvas 16 x 20.

'Winter Mallards',(Canadian west coast Impressionism, mallards, winter marsh)

Waterfowl are adaptable and hardy and seem to quite enjoy

those areas of ice cold weather can create. Nothing can

out do the colour of sunlit Mallard drakes on a crisp

winter afternoon. Truly one of natures

most colourful visual delights.

Oil on wood panel 6 x 8.

'Fishin' not Wishin', **SOLD**(Canadian west coast Impressionism, Belted Kingfisher, bird watching)

Amazing birds to observe doing their thing the

Belted Kingfisher is also a strikingly beautiful bird.

Equally at home in ponds and lakes they are also very

comfortable fishing in the ocean shoreline. Here on

Vancouver Island I get to watch them in both

salt and freshwater environments.

Oil on wood panel 6 x 6.

'Over the Edge',(Canadian west coast Impressionism, Mount Maxwell, Saltspring Island, Turkey Vultures)

I spent a late afternoon painting up on Mount

Maxwell last September and took the reference

photo for this piece at that time. It was

such a magical early evening and quite thrilling

as we looked down on soaring Turkey vultures

and ravens while painting and photographing

the spectacular view. As I painted this the

memory of stillness, the lovely scent of

pine and the raven talk made me long

for a return trip sometime!

Oil on canvas 16 x 12.
