Tidal Merge, 12" x 12", oil on canvas
Companion piece to the previous posting.
Back into the studio today, I took yesterday off as a bit burnt out, but reinspired by the creative goings on of some of my fellow Hornbyites, not so much about painting, but solar building design.  What that has to do with painting?   Hmm, I think to live life looking at, and participating of the natural world, rather than conquering it.  A celebration of it..Painting landscape for me is to re-experience the sea/sky/ weather, whatever it is i am working on at the moment.

Helliwell Gold

Helliwell Gold, 30" x 30", oil on canvas, SOLD
A busy day in the studio today.  I had just finished this piece and put it out on a easel to photograph when a wonderful couple from Vancouver came to look at paintings.  They were interested in a few including this one and I had not even titled it.  So I asked for suggestions..Helliwell Gold it is!..
