Moonrise Over Lyall Street

This was the view from my studio one evening last March.
The cloud formations had been amazing all afternoon and I
had gone out to take some photo's and when I returned
I got some of the best shots right from my window!!
I painted this piece a few weeks later
using several of the photos
for reference.
Oil on canvas 24 x 30.

Saxe Point Rocks

This is another in a series of small ones I have been doing
featuring the beautiful shoreline of Saxe Point park
that juts out into the Strait of Juan du Fuca
just a short distance from my studio. This is one of three
I have recently painted looking from different
directions, all within a few feet of each other.
This one I did Saturday afternoon under the watchful
eyes of several friendly art lovers.
Oil on board 6 x 6.
Comments always appreciated.

Saxe Point Shore

Tide and wind conditions allowed me to set up right on
the rocks at the waters edge yesterday for this painting.
Feeling the hot sun and breathing the moist sea air
while painting this piece I once again felt so thankful
to live within walking distance to this wonderful
spot. Saxe Point Park is a jewel of Esquimalt
and the greater Victoria region.
Oil on wood panel 6 x 6.

December Afternoon-Plumper Bay

A warm sunny afternoon in December and the time to
get out and paint...how great is that. The temperature
hit 13C which is about 60F...niiiice!
The rapidly moving clouds presented quite a
challenge and by the time an hour had gone by large
looming dark clouds had moved in and
it was time to skedaddle!
This is another view of part of Esquimalt Harbour.
Oil on board 6 x 8.
Comments always appreciated.

the Horse Barn

The classic red barn always seems to work in a painting.
This piece was done en plein air yesterday
in a wonderful spot not far from my home in Esquimalt.
It is a beautiful time of year with the new grass
and leaves in all those wonderful greens.
I plan to go back soon, as there are many
different views for more paintings
all from the same general location.
Although this piece is a bit dark I really liked the way
all the colours worked together.
Oil on canvas 11 x 14.

"I associate my 'careless boyhood' with all that lies on the banks
of the the Stour. Those scenes made me a painter and I am
grateful - that is, I had often thought of pictures
of them before ever I touched a pencil."
