Same painting, different size.
North Poles 18″x24″
I decided to use my tiny painting as a study for this larger version. I’m happy to be finding some painting time after a busy December and January.

I don’t usually name these small paintings, but it’s 8 days until Christmas and I couldn’t resist.
A Little Winter
Acrylic Paintings 3″ x 3″
Since many of these will be given as Christmas gifts, I decided to make some that are appropriate for the season.

3″ x 3″ paintings
Once again I am working on these little 3 inch paintings, perfect for gift giving. I really enjoy them because they are quick and give me a break from my larger “serious” paintings. They remind me that painting should be fun. They also work as little studies for large paintings later on. I’ll be focusing on these until Christmas.

Hastings Mill Store
Hastings Mill Store 18″x24″
This is the Hastings Mill Store – known as Vancouver’s oldest building. You can read all about it’s history here. The park where it is located is my favourite picnic spot in the city. It sits up on a cliff overlooking English Bay, with a beautiful view of downtown and the North Shore mountains.

Study
2 Horses – study 11″x14″
I was hoping to come up with a catchier title for this painting, but as I worked on it, I had a few problems. I think it’s best to chalk it up to practice and name it accordingly.
Here comes fall (but not yet).
Stanley Park Maple 24″x18″
I may be painting fall, but I’m not done with summer yet. We are off to Summerland next week, to enjoy the last part of August. Looking forward to a change of scenery.

I wouldn’t mind spending my summer here. I’ll have to settle for painting it instead…

Yellow Ochre
Spring Bales 18″ x 24″
This painting helped me use up one of the tubes of yellow ochre that I have stockpiled. Sometimes when I’m at the art store, I have trouble remembering what colours I need. For some reason I always pick up a tube of yellow ochre. Even after this painting I still have two unopened tubes in my cupboard (but no burnt umber or sap green which I need most).
