February has been a challenging month in the Henderson family. It`s in hard times that solid roots become so important. They hold us up, and provide the opportunity to look forward to the future and see the potential for growth.
Rooted and Branching
Painting
NB Legislature
Today’s post is the finished version of NB Legislature. This stately building rests in downtown Fredericton, New Brunswick.
Duck!
It’s been fun to paint this little yellow bit of rubber. It’s a blustery winter day outside and there is nothing on the horizon but variations of pale grey. The bright yellow of “Duck!” adds a bit of sunshine to an otherwise dreary cold January day.
Preserved Skates
Growing up in Canada learning to skate is a national requirement. I have early memories of making my way to an outdoor pond and putting on a pair of too large skates (familial hand me downs), tentatively pushing around a wooden chair on the slick frozen surface and in the end doing my best Bambi on ice impression. My skating has improved over the years, but not too much. Today’s post is one of my “Preserves” in it I have preserved a pair of the ubiquitous footwear of my homeland.
Preserved Peace Tower
Since I started this blog I’ve attempted to post something every day. It was an opportunity to not only present new work, but to shake the dust off of older work and let it see the light of day. As we begin 2020 I am going to put the older work back on the shelf for the time being, and just present newer projects. Today’s post is the newly finished version of “Preserved Peace Tower”.
Christmas Montage
I hope everyone is having a fantastic Christmas.
Silent Night
Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas.
