'Metchosin Cove'

often in plain sight
the best ones are not for adornment
but remain priceless in their own right"

'Camosun Wetlands'

While I stood painting this piece  Friday

morning, I was serenaded by a large group

 of feeding Trumpeter Swans...

talk about another day in paradise!

'Tonquin Light'

Though it can be said that each geographic

area has its own special light,

none more so than here on the coast.

Attempting to capture the light with

a rapidly advancing weather system bearing 

down on your location is always challenging.

Often we are forced to "play"

a little with reality.

Using both a small plein air piece

and photo's taken while painting it I

"played" with this piece

within the confines of the studio

and reality.

'Coastal Guardian'

Once again another year has passed into

memory, some cherished, others, perhaps not so much.

We will carry on making our art,

striving always to create more and improve our work.

Though it may at times seem completely out of 

our reach. Always the process

will challenge us and ask more of us.

Often I feel somewhat saddened when I look at

the results of my artistic accomplishments of

the year just passed. Wishing I had

painted more, sold more, learned more...

but the process rescues me and my

vision becomes more clear and resolute and 

it strengthens my hand.

The year ahead will bring with it discoveries never

imagined, successes and failures.

Several years ago now a hardy

 coastal resident boarding up his

windows preparing for the arrival of a hurricane

painted a message on one of the coverings...

"BRING IT ON JUAN"

Wishing you all the best in this year ahead.
