NEW PAINTINGS



Title:Little Salmon Lake
Medium:  Mixed Media
Size:  4x6
(sold)


Title:  Aurora Borealis
Medium:  Watercolour & Ink
Size:  4x6

It seems that I don't have as much time when summer hits to paint large paintings.
The  small ones that frame to 5x7 are kind of nice to do because they take
not that long and I take them to the Interpretive Centre and to our local Arts and Craft Store
Castle Glass and the tourists like them.

Title:  Dena Cho Trail, Faro Yukon
Medium:  Watercolour and Pencil

I have not had a lot of time to paint in the last little while because I have started work again.  The Sheep & Crane Festival was great but the weather was pretty rainy on Saturday.
I did this little guy about a week ago. I seem to be in bit of green phase.

BECOMING A PART OF THE ARTIST COMMUNITY

Title:  Summer Rain: Pelly Valley Near Faro
Medium:  Watercolour and Pencil
Size:  5x7
(sold)
It seems so long since I last posted. A few new things have happened. 
I am proud to say that I am Yukon Artists At Work's newest member.
This Whitehorse based artist co-op has great energy and
I feel that I am part of something bigger than just myself. 
 I will keep everyone posted as to when I am in
Whitehorse to do some shifts at the gallery as it is
an artist-run gallery.

I have also started working at the Campbell Region Interpretive Centre
for the summer. 
We are officially opening tomorrow and have a busy
weekend ahead with the 8th Annual Sheep &Crane Festival.
