Another day in the clouds.

Though cool and windy,

the cloud show was fantastic from atop

Mount Tolmie last Thursday.

The darn panel wasn't big enough though...

'Smoky Dawn-Mount Tolmie'

I painted on Mount Tolmie's north slope Friday

morning and as the title suggests the smoke from the

many fires many hundreds of miles away in the interior

regions of BC was once again present in the air. Though it

makes for an interesting sky colour, forest fires are a nasty

reality where ever forests are part of the landscape.

My eyes have been very sore by days end for a week or so

it is much worse for folks elsewhere.

Spring-Mount Tolmie

That wonderful time of spring wild flowers always

seems to pass so quickly and once again

they have gone to seed in preparation for next years

crop of dancing colour. I was fortunate this year

to have made it out to paint en plein air

several times during the spring showing.

This is a larger version of a painting I did a

couple of weeks ago and will be one of my new works

for an upcoming show at the Morris Gallery here

in Victoria. It is a group show featuring five

of the gallery artists...

myself, Linny D. Vine, D. F. Gray, Joanne Thomson

and Keith Hiscock.

Opening reception is on Thurs. June 19th, from

7 - 9pm. You can get more details on my website.

If you are in the area please come and join us.

Acrylic on canvas 24 x 30.

Your comments are always welcomed.
