Finally, summer is here! Vancouver’s Lower Mainland has been usually cold the last few weeks but lo and behold, summer is here. And as so, I was ever so inclined to take the kids to the beach. Here’s one photo that I think represents some of the reasons why we really love summer.

So, I’ve called this one finished. The textures and colour contrast have transformed again. I was having a bit of an old impressionist painter’s problem – I would paint with a ton of light and it looked fantastic but when taken away from all that light, I could not see enough detail. So here it is. Now that I can see the colour and texture in a typically lit room, I’m happy.

New Discoveries
I thought this was a fitting one for today. Their intent gaze down at the water as they discover something new is a perfect example of what makes motherhood so special. Happy Mothers’ Day!

Inspired by ‘Lonely Sailboat’, the photograph.
Ok, I’m now getting that happy, content feeling of having completed this painting. I added much more texture to the water, mountains and clouds and completely redesigned the boat. I will let it dry and possibly add more definition to the base of the boat but overall I’m feeling very happy with the result. Check back often for the final copy!

Lonely Sailboat II
Yet another ‘Lonely Sailboat‘. Unlike my previous rendition, this one was out on this calm, cloudy day. Still just as peaceful and beautiful.
Velvety Sky Over The Pier
Though, not much was happening in the sky this gray day, the clouds were striking with velvety textures and soft, subtle colours.

My favorite shots of the beautiful Pier in Whiterock, British Columbia, Canada. Which one do you like?

Lonely Sailboat (work in progress 2) - Oil On Canvas
This second phase is more interesting then the first as I’ve added more contrast and texture. Still some work to be done but it’s coming along happily.
– Based on ‘Lonely Sailboat’, the photograph.

Lonely Sailboat
This lonely sailboat, on the sunny water way up on the horizon, just seemed to show up in my shot. It was a pleasant surprise that adds a new and unexpected element to this photograph.

Everybody loves a beach party as the sun sets. This is a late march evening at English Bay in Vancouver.
