A classic site in the lift line at the bottom of the Harmony Chair (the old Blue Chair) at Whistler Mountain. The playful Whiskey Jacks circle above and occasionally perching on the top of a ski pole, hoping for a handout.
Landscape
Eagle Harbour Stillness – SOLD 10 x 10, oil on canvas
A view from Eagle Harbour Beach out across the harbour to Passage Island on a beautiful quiet evening.
Standing Strong 2 – Sold 10 x 10, oil on canvas
The little islets out on the west coast stand with such majestic strength all year long!
In Sync – Sold 10 x 10, oil on panel
Together these two geese were on a mission. Not sure where they were off to, perhaps it was lunch!!
On the Pond 10 x 10, oil on panel
A gaggle of geese were out on the pond and I selected this particular one. I really liked the way she was moving toward me, yet something to her right caught her attention.
Whytecliff Beach Stillness -SOLD 11 x14, oil on cradled panel
Whytecliff Park has always held a fascination with its little islet that is accessible at low tide and surrounded by the sea at a full tide. This was painted before the noon day sun and Whyte Islet had lovely shadows.
West Coast Peace – Sold 16 x 20, oil on canvas
The West Coast can be ferocious or placid and calm. The is a day on the west coast when all was so contemplative and peaceful!! A delight to paint!
Stearman Beach Glow – Sold 11 x 14, oil on cradled panel
Stearman Beach has long been a favourite of my family. It has a little creek running through the beach to the sea and it has kept kids occupied and enthusiastic on the beach for hours. It looks west over towards Caulfeild and the dipping sun creates a wonderful display at the end of the day.
VanDusen Sunflowers, 12 x 12, oil on board
Started plein air in VanDusen Botanical Gardens when the beautifully large sunflowers were in full bloom.
Long Black Neck, SOLD 11 x 14, oil on cradled panel
This Long Black Neck Canada Goose struts with attitude across the grass. As she stretched her neck high, I caught the perfect photo of her in mid-stride.
