Walking with Grampa

Another painting inspired by my recent trip home.

Duncan MacLeod

Duncan MacLeod 10″ x 10″

Duncan is the last of my Christmas portraits. He’s the only dog I’ve known who has a surname.

Silo in Mayerthorpe

I was lucky to catch this amazing sunset while visiting Mayerthorpe last summer. I have a feeling that it might appear in future paintings as well!

Tony

This is the first time I’ve painted a lizard. It was a birthday gift for someone special. Tony is a Uromastyx (aka spiny-tailed lizard) – a really nice little pet.

On the Tracks in Mayerthorpe

On the Tracks in Mayerthorpe 14″ x 18″

It has been a while since I painted anything from Mayerthorpe. Hanging out on the tracks isn’t the safest place to watch a storm, but it gave me a pretty nice view.

Sparrows Beneath the Flowers

Sparrows Under the Flowers 8″ x 8″

Here’s a little reminder that spring is just around the corner!

Many of my latest bird paintings are now available as prints on my Etsy page. Have a look!

Sparrows and Blossoms

Sparrows and Blossoms 8″ x 8″

When in doubt, paint more birds. I guess this is what I do while other ideas are percolating. Don’t want to have an empty easel after all.

For sale at Daily Paintworks.

Whytecliff Park

Whytecliff Park 18″ x 14″

The private commission I recently did left me with a few ideas that I wanted to explore – like this view from Whytecliff Park in West Vancouver.
