'Morning Pastels'

I painted this piece early last spring from

a small cove not far from my studio.

Just as I was getting close to finishing

I could hear the fog horn from Trial Island light

to the north east indicating the approach

'West Coast Afternoon'

Along the west coast of Vancouver Island

the power and force of the Pacific

comes to shore. 

At times it can be deceptively gentle but

more often it roars into the rocky

shoreline that bars it from advancing further.

Often it is a scene of muted greys,

but when the sun breaks free it

vibrates with fresh and startling colour.
