477 Summer Day

Buy

It was a beautiful day in Victoria. Just like summer. Actually, maybe a little too warm. Everyone was out enjoying the weekend. I used a very limited warm palette for this painting. 

411 Dallas Road Scene

sold

It was a glorious day and everyone and their dog was out walking on Dallas Road. This spot in particular is one of my favourites. It's just overlooking Fonyo Beach.

Towards Holland Point, oil on canvas panel, 6x6

I did this on a red ground. It was a gray day and I saw the water as silvery white. 

Seawalk, Dallas Road Scene, oil on canvas board, 6x6

SOLD

Boy it was quite windy today. The birds were having a great time riding the wind. They just get up there and hover. This was a nice subject, not out of the wind but tolerable. I like the sun washed wall. Lately I've been inspired by pathways and sun washed walls.

Looking Up, Dallas Road Scene, Oil on board, 6x6in

click to bid

This is the second of two paintings I did today. I painted this as the sun was beginning to set. Boy were the shadows changing quickly. What appealed to me most about this scene were the shadows on that wall. This is the same path as in the Dallas Road Scene and Coyote Path only from the bottom.

This little gem is on auction at a starting bid of $49

Victoria Beach Scene, oil 6x6

sold

It was a very windy but sunny Labor Day here in Victoria. Every one was out today enjoying the long weekend in spite of the wind.
This scene is facing towards Fonyo beach.

Empress Night, acrylic, 16x20

sold

Here's an Empress at night. I like nightscapes. I think I'll do more of them. 

Fisgard Lighthouse, 6x6, oil

SOLD

I did this little gem with the Alfrescoes today at Fort Rodd Hill.

This painting will take a week to dry. In the mean time I will put it on an auction for 7 days.  If it doesn't sell on auction I'll then bring it to the causeway and sell it.
The starting bid is $49 plus $10 shipping and handling.

Park Scene, watercolor, 4x4

I spent the afternoon in Beaconhill Park enjoying the lovely day. I did this little sketch in my little sketch book.

Artists Painting, oil, 6x6

SOLD

I went to a paint out near the Chinese Cemetery today. Many alfrescoes showed up for the event. The landscape was just littered with them.

This painting is on auction at a starting bid of $49.

Regan Ridge, 6x6, oil on panel

SOLD

This morning's effort at Holland Point. Just as I was considering the title a gentleman observer commented that that is Regan Ridge across the way. A beautiful hike with lots of wild flowers. Just beneath the white peaks is Port Angeles. So this little painting covers two countries.

This is for sale on an auction at a starting bid of $49

Holland Point Snag, oil on board, 6inx6in

SOLD

I've been neglecting my daily painting lately so I decided  to get back into little ones. Though they take the same time as the larger ones they are better for experimenting. Today I wanted to get good color  harmony and depth so I chose to do a little seascape. This is one of my favorite spots.

Macaulay Point Park Scene, acrylic, 16x20

I did this today during the Victoria Sketch Club outing.
