Arts Upfront Festival, July 13 to 17th, 2016




I spent 2 days in Whitehorse at the Arts Up Front Festival.  Four hours per day demonstrating and the painting was completed!  Yet Another sunset.  It was so nice to be in the "Big City" and talk with the people and paint.  So grateful for the opportunity!

A Fleeting Gift

A sunset I painted recently.... why do I love sunsets so much?  I love their colours, their peace, their ability to make me feel the divine.  A sunset brings me home to myself.  It washes away the cares of the day and I feel at peace with myself and the world.  It is a fleeting gift given freely and humbly, countless times but never the same.
This one was inspired by our midnight sun in the Yukon.
