Where does a walk on the river stones take you? This painting invites you to begin the journey…. Or to recall a time the day was glorious and you couldn’t help but jump from rock to rock. As always
expect to fall in!

Each layer/brush stroke/colour becomes its own “refresh” in the creation of a work that celebrates the magic of the circle itself.

At times painting the landscape means getting up close and having a look at the details. A discovery of shape and colour. Nature as we may see it… if we look!

Watching as the sun blazes through the forest the shapes and colours shift in real time. Capturing this in painting poses challenges and pleasures for the painter.

There are moments when the artist realizes that although the foreground of a landscape seems up close and personal… the distance is where the painting rests.

Sometimes the simple can be come complicated in ways that are unexpected. This work began as simple but as it grew so did the complications of colour, form, energy, transition and shape. A sort of “beautifully complicated arrangement” - like life in so many ways.

Time stops in the woods and one is able to catch their breath; recover and reflect on what has been, what is and what may come to pass after 98. Bittersweet.

The eye, the pencil, the paper, the canvas, the brush, the canvas …… the viewer. Painting process? Nature’s course? Outcome.

For those who love the sumac, the fascination is with the shape and the colour and the changing of the seasons. Lines. Shape. Colour. The artist’s dream.

Submerging oneself in the true north for a week of creating means painting and drawing and building to your heart’s content. By week’s end the shapes and colours resonate and finished works are both souvenirs as well as works of art.

There are times when the fall winds blow and one can have a flash glance at all of the things that fall can be in the woods. Cool- yet warm. Beautiful -yet harsh. The brush meets the palette knife to create this work. Like in the forest, what peeks out is of interest to the eye. Enjoy.

Moving from one spot to the next while painting there may be time to pause and explore the land between two favourite spots. Fresh eyes….. seeing lines and connections not yet seen until the brush is required to paint the canvas.

When it rains at the lake, the artist might abandon what they “see” to enjoy the smell and sound and feel of the rain in hopes of painting this experience to present to the viewer. A wet and wonderful and inspiring day.

Each day the beauty of a moment on a drive - the same moment - creates an image to paint. Inspired by the moment, painted over time with layers designed to create the depth of the woods and the artist’s view. A painting to enjoy. Paired with the painting Circling Back creates a space worth experiencing.

The calm of being in the woods always surprises the painter when the painting, and the activity of capturing the moment, winds up a frenetic series of lines and clouds and shapes. A busy painting with a calmness only the subject matter can suggest. Naturebathing.

At times in relationships we are stuck. Jammed up. As lovers we can become stuck in places that seem quite ethereal but in fact we are still just stuck…. In a beautiful place. Lovers’ Log Jam is designed to be a visual portrayal of this phenomenon - stuck, in a beautiful place.
