To family members so I do know they have gone to a good home. But, still, it would be nice to sale something once in awhile. A girl needs to keep herself in canvas and paints somehow!!!
Anyway “Pond Ornaments” and “Shuswap Shore” are no longer available.
Cheers Susan

While in Grand Cayman this winter I had the privilege and pleasure of going on an excursion aboard a semi submersible. Being a lover of any kind of water I found the trip exciting and interesting. My camera at the ready. Unfortunately the camera did not do the under water colors justice. My minds eye remembers seeing color and lots of it. Perhaps some imagined. The painting is what I saw. Something new, I used iridescent silver acrylic to accent the fish and their scales. A fun painting. One can’t take themselves too seriously! Enjoy!

Shell Shopping!

My first selfie! Well okay so it is my first attempt at a self portrait. While in Ft. Lauderdale Florida a few weeks ago the first thing I did was dip my toes in the ocean. It had been years since my last visit to a seaside. Such lovely white sand. So appealing and oh so warm and sunny. Of course I had to do some seashell hunting and it wasn’t hard to find them either. My kind of shopping! And free for the taking too!
I hope you enjoy my take on a idyllic day. Cheers, Susan

It was a two painting day!!! Along with “Lookin’ Up” I played around with this painting. Because I am never too sure about my ability with water colors I usually hesitate to post my efforts. I am taking a chance here and hope you like it. Stayin’ warm! This was a good pass time. Cheers!

Its very cold here today. Since my work is caught up and I did not want to go out doors I decided to spend time at my easel. This is a view I remember from last summer. I always try to remember to look up. Its amazing what one sees when they take the time!
The Cabin at Haven Point Revisited

My first painting of 2014! I decided to go back to one of my favourite places and enjoy the reminder of summer. The first version I did of this I was a relatively inexperienced painter so why not revisit? The cabin itself is situated at Haven Point on Shuswap Lake. When I walk by the cabin on a warm summers day it seems and feels like a cool restful place. Unfortunately it is falling apart and has been deemed unsafe. Some year soon, on our first boating weekend of the season I will no doubt be saddened by the cabins winter demise. In the meantime it was nice to have a reminder of summer and warm snow free days!
