Art2 at the Arts Quinte West Gallery

 

The first snowfall of the year blanketed everything.  The boy and I were out making snow angels before sunrise.  Not my idea of the first thing to do in the morning but it is wonderful to watch him frolic about with delight.  Yes, I did make angels as requested.

Something about winter makes me want to hide in my painting cave and paint sunshine and summer flowers.  These two paintings are a donation to the Arts Quinte West Gallery here in Trenton for a fundraiser 'Art2'.  Everything 12" square is ONLY $50.00.  On to bigger pieces, more sunshine and flowers and grape vines.



November Gales

 

Painted for the Arts Quinte West Juried Show 'Stories' in November.  This encaustic wave piece has snippets of news clippings from the Great Storm of November 1913 which plummeted the Great Lakes from November 9-13 leaving more than 250 people dead and 19 ships lost.

 



 

 

Also for the juried show, this painting is typical of a visit to the beach with my son, an only child who enjoys family 'hoping'.  In this painting he is chatting with his new friend Grace and her mom while we wait for the fireworks to start over the harbour at Kincardine's Station Beach.
