'Clearing Skies-Incinerator Rock'

Another one from my west coast plein air

adventure, this one at Long Beach and the amazing

geological marvel Incinerator Rock.

It stands like a bulwark against the never ending

surf that rolls and crashes onto this spectacular

edge of Canada. They break against this rock behemoth

with incredible displays of natures force.

One feels much in awe and small in the

presence of such grandeur.

I'm not convinced that a mere 9 x 12 panel

has done it justice...

'October Sunrise-Cox Bay'

This is one of the paintings from a recent painting

adventure to Tofino on Vancouver Islands west coast,

and the wild open Pacific. It is incredibly exhilarating

to stand on strip of tidal beach that separates one bay

from another and watch and listen to the big surf

rolling and crashing in front and behind you and keeping

a close eye on the tide as it rises around you.

By the time I finished it was only 20 feet away

from me and my easel.
