'Low Tide Adventures'


'An adventure most magical,
when the tides run out leaving that which was inaccessible,
exposed to unlimited exploration.
The warm spring sun on winter hidden skin,
the cries of sea birds carried on the sea breeze,
and then you find it...'

'Spring Adventure' *SOLD*


Sometimes life seems so simple and full of grand
adventure and learning can be so much fun.
The joy of memories comes much
 later when they are so
important and fun.

'Spring Tide - Gulf Islands'

A beautiful spot at anytime, Saltspring Island's Burgoyne
Bay is stunning on a sunny morning in late
May which often co-insides with a spring tide.
These tides are those which fall during the full moon or
new moon phases and are noted for the very
extreme high-highs and low-lows of tide levels.
At these times the earth, sun and moon alien
to produce maximum force of gravity creating
those extremes in tide levels.
Also my favourite time to paint seashore scenes.
