Safe Passage

6 x 8 inches - oil on gessoboard - I had to wait a few days for this to dry so that I could repaint the foreground.

Sailing Home

6 x 6 inches - oil on gessoboard - Lately, I have been working on a new series related to Rondeau Provincial Park in Ontario. This sailor is returning to the yacht club from a race on Rondeau Bay off Lake Erie. The yacht club, or as my daughter used to call the yutz club (there must be a story but I never asked), is a small place where the children take swimming lessons and race small sailboats. This is where I learned to swim a long, long, long time ago.

Storm on the St Lawrence River

6 x 8 inches - oil on gessoboard - This scene is from the road in Quebec that heads to New Brunswick or to the Gaspe.

Seagull

6 x 8 inches - oil on gessoboard - This is such a successful animal, that I thought it deserved a dignified portrait.

Valley by the Sea

5 x 7 inches - oil on gessoboard

Seagulls on the Shore

6 x 6 inches - oil on gessoboard - Seagulls that are somewhat annoying in the city are less so in their normal habitat.

Waves on a Gray Day

5 x 7 inches - oil on gessoboard -  Waves keep on coming ashore regardless of the weather.
