SUNSET YUKON RIVER

Title:  Sunset Yukon River
Medium:  Watercolour
Size: 8x10
SOLD

There was glass on the painting when I took the photo so you can see it.
I really do love sunsets and anybody that knows me would know just how many 
I have painted.  I moved my studio from Magundy back to my basement in town.
Unfortunately the weather has not really cooperated with my outdoor
studio this summer.  But one thing that I have done is get lots of pictures of 
mushrooms for reference material this winter.

FIREWEED ON THE ALASKA HIGHWAY

Title: Alaska Highway
Medium:  Watercolour
Image Size:  5x7
(Sold)
Summer is marching by. I felt the shift on August 1st  from summer to fall.  
Way too early in my books! But there you have it.  It's that intangible bite in the 
air  and as soon as you feel it you know there is no going back.

It has been raining all day in Faro.  I was at Magundy for a few days and 
started working on my newest piece.  My largest yet.  Four feet square.
I have the drawing on and have used molding paste to create texture.
I am working Friday, Saturday and Sunday.  So I will have to 
wait til Monday to start.
