On Winter's Eve afternoon I painted in a

favourite spot not far from the studio.

It felt good being out painting on that crisp

day as I welcomed the return of the light

and marveled once again at the

natural beauty so close to home.
Two Flickers spent some time observing
my progress sitting just above me
in a young Garry Oak.

* Happy Solstice Everyone! *

Finally the darkest days are in the rearview and the

light returns a little more each day, put your

hands in the air and yell hooray!!

(or what ever you think would be appropriate)

=:-/

What better way to celebrate the return of the light

then a sunny morning painting of

Fisgard Lighthouse,

the first light on the Salish Sea.

Built for the British Admiralty 150 years ago.

It marked the approach to the mouth of

Esquimalt Harbour where the navy had their

base here on the west coast of Canada.

This is a scene I have painted before in smaller formats.

'Winter Solstice' **SOLD**

I'm still on the snow paintings. Hard not to when you

wake up in a Lawren Harris painting every morning.

We will likely have a white Christmas this year on

the south end of Vancouver Island for the

first time in many years. It really is very

beautiful here right now in Victoria.

A snowy winter wonderland.
