My studio, like most places in Victoria this summer, is scorching hot, so I moved outside to paint yesterday. Beacon Hill Park provided plenty of shade and beautiful things to paint. I wanted to do a full painting in one go but was thwarted by my loss of light. Instead, I managed to block in the large areas of colour, and a tentative composition, and if the weather stays fine (ha!) I’ll go back and finish it today. I will post some photos of its progression to completion next week.
Later folks!

I was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba. As a child, I fell in love with the British Columbia landscape during a family trip to the Kootenays.
For a prairie girl whose existence was marked by the swings between the extreme heat and cold of the prairie, BC provided an evergreen and ever-growing calmness. I moved to BC the moment I finished my nutrition degree.
