'Autumn Snowfall',(Canadian west coast Impressionism, early snowfall, oil paintings of southern Vancouver Island)

Last light on an early snowfall can provide

some dramatic light and colour.

I'm remembering (once again) just

how addictive painting snow can be, yikes!

'Fisgard Calm'

Snow is falling here on the south Island as I write this

and though it is a magical winter wonderland it

does create havoc for we Islanders.

(even those displaced from the great white north

very much east of here)

It is supposed to change to rain later this afternoon

and will all be washed away =:-(

Painted from a photo taken while painting en plein air

last summer, this will be the final one to be ready for my

show next week 'South Island Impressions'.

I hope to use this painting as a practice

run for a much larger painting.

'Woodland Waterfall'

This another painting for my up coming show

on Thurs. Dec 02 at

The Gallery

in the Oak Bay Village

The show opens on the gallery walk night

in the Oak Bay Village

6 pm - 9 pm

I will be there and hope you can make it out.

I took the reference

photo on a plein air excursion to the, now

protected, Sooke Potholes. This stream

feeds into the Sooke River and was

quite a sight that day in late October.

'Winter Evening Oaks'

This piece was painted from a photo taken

after a heavy snowfall two years ago here

in Victoria. Although we don't like to admit it

we do get snow here on the south Island from

time to time. There is snow in our

weekend forecast!

'Oaks & Snow'

Well this is quite different... =;-))

This is one of the paintings that will be in my

upcoming show here in Victoria in early Dec.

I hope to do about four in this series

featuring snow covered Garry oak meadows.

'Autumn on the River'

 
Hi everyone,

Well I'm back on the river once again so to

speak. This is the largest so far in the series.

This format allowed me to include more detail which helped

to show the drop in elevation as the water starts it's

rush to the head of the falls at the viewers left.
In the years I have been on southern Vancouver Island

my time on the water has largely been on the sea and

some of our inland lakes. However this series has made me

realize how much I've been missing and I'm planning

future painting excursions to this and other

rivers here on the south Island.

'October Sky-Highrock' #32

I painted this one late afternoon several weeks ago.

Artist Linny D. Vine and I were hoping to get

some early evening sky drama to paint as a new

front approached. While it didn't develop as I

had hoped it did provide some interesting

patterns and light. We needed to paint

fairly quickly due to the failing light.
