Pemberton weekend

I spent the weekend painting with Susie and Andrea in Susie's magnificent studio in Pemberton. What a beautiful area- there will definitely be some Pemberton paintings coming up soon. Here we have Susie painting and Blue enjoying Susie's dog, Sophie's, bed. Painting with friends is one of my favourite things to do.Thanks to Susie and Andrea for great food, great company and lots of inspiration.

Canyon Creek

This is a 24 x 36" acrylic. It's my second version of this place, which is in North Vancouver's Lynn Canyon. I love the clarity and colour of the water. It took quite a while to get the feeling of rocks underwater- lots of glazing and layers of paint. I think it works now :-)
