Some seasons are for preparation, for sitting and waiting, and being ready for a chance to hit the high seas.
Dry Dock
Watercolour
Montague PEI
The town’s slogan is “Montague the Beautiful” and sometimes it lives up to that lauded description.
River Walk
Many of us are drawn to the water’s edge. We long for rivers, lakes, streams, and the ocean as we seek a place to refresh our souls. On a still day, the water’s calm offers up near mirror-like reflections. The brilliant sunshine on your favorite stretch of water reveals billions of shining diamonds. I hope everyone is safe and hopefully soon we’ll all be able to make it to the water’s edge.
Along the Way
Today’s post is a watercolour of a place I had the fortune to pass everyday on my way to work. When you keep your eyes open there is always beauty “Along the Way”.
Orwell River
As we all spend a little too much time inside today’s post is a reminder of what awaits in the near future. Hang in there.
NB Legislature
Today’s post is the finished version of NB Legislature. This stately building rests in downtown Fredericton, New Brunswick.
NB Legislature – W.I.P.
Today’s post is a work in progress shot of a watercolour of the New Brunswick Legislature.
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.
Duck! – W.I.P.
I’ve begun work on a new watercolour. There are times when everyone should “Duck”.
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.
