Late Summer Lilies



Another one from a recent sojourn in the 
grasshopper days of early September.
The dragons were busy 
with their legacy while I painted...

'Last Light-Cusheon Lake'


 'Dragons & Kingfishers'

There is an island 
that lies in the Salish Sea
In early September it calls to me
The Kingfishers fly their halcyon displays
Red dragons are tap tap tapping 
their new life away
The grasshopper afternoon's heat
goes with me as I slide
into the lakes liquid velvet dive
Once again 
 it is all clear to me

This was painted one evening very quickly
just as the sun was setting behind 
those hills to the left.
It was pretty much dark while I was cleaning up.

'The Tangled Shore'


This is one of the paintings I did while
on a recent trip to Saltspring Island.
The Big Leaf maples were showing lots of colour.
