This first painting was painted from the top of Rattlesnake Point. It was a fantastic day with fish scale clouds and no haze. Perfect for this kind of vista. I have never painted here before but I will be back. My goal with this painting was to capture the perspective. We are a long way up and can see forever.
I have been sketching more. These watercolour and ink sketches are just plain fun to do. The first one is of an artist friend at one of our paint outs. The second one is of the Rails End Gallery in Haliburton. I had two paintings in an invitational plein air show there and Debbie and I drove up there to retrieve them. Nothing breaks up seven hours on the road like half an hour sketching.
Debbie and I are driving to British Columbia this summer so I can see some paintings and a ton of sketches in my future.
