We are home! Actually we’ve been back in Canada for ten days now. It’s been a busy ten days.
The photos? There’s a couple of paintings that I have available. Our houseboat that we’re looking forward to spending the summer months on. Took a few minutes for myself and got a haircut. And my 2025 Federation of Canadian Artists badge.
Hopefully I’ll get time to spend time at my easel soon. And time to spend getting caught up here.
Hope everyone had a good winter. I am embracing the Canadian spring weather. A slight change from the Mexican sunshine and warmth.
Cheers Susan
A revision and a reminder…

This time I have a revision of a painting that I did back in 2018 to share with you. I was never particularly happy with “Raven Trail Autumn” but at the time I decided to leave it alone. Every time I looked at it I wanted to do something to it but was never sure what. The boardwalk bothered me and the lake in the distance did too. So this week I finally put Raven Trail Autumn back on my easel and had a go at changing it. Hopefully for the better. As you can see I posted the 2018 version on top and the 2024 revision bellow it.
The reminder is for the upcoming annual July long weekend Art Show and Sale at the Red Barn in Sicamous. Please, if you are in the area, drop by and visit the show. We have a lot of very talented people in our neck of the woods. I will be volunteering at the show daily from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. and I will have four of my bigger paintings available along with a table of my smaller paintings and “one of a kind” cards for sale.

Until now my latest painting was nameless. With my husband’s help we’ve given it the title of….drum roll…. “Woodland Stroll”.
Hope you like it.

Mission Accomplished

Mission accomplished! My first painting and commission of 2024 completed. For me it’s better late than never. I haven’t painted a real painting in months. I was beginning to think and worry that I had lost my touch. I had certainly lost the urge. Happily I discovered none of the above had actually happened. Apparently I just needed a break.
“Haven Point Memory” is a commissioned painting. Am I ever glad this opportunity was provided. The subject was perfect for me at this time. I needed an escape from all the stuff life, or rather a death, has thrown my way. Otherwise I may still be floundering in dither land. More simply put I needed to paint. And I needed a reason. Thankfully opportunity struck. Haven Point on Shuswap Lake holds many fond memories for me and many of our friends. Not to mention the person who will eventually receive this painting as a gift. The cabin and it’s surroundings provide a serene, cool and calm place to recoup and regroup. Perfection.

Getting my groove back…

We have moved to the lake for the next 5 to 6 months. Our home is a 50 foot houseboat on the Shuswap. I look forward to the lazy days of summer. When all the estate matters for my mother have been dealt with. When I can find inspiration and create.
In the meantime…it snowed on the hills overnight and our furnace isn’t working. It is cold and blustery. The houseboat rocking. Getting my fingers to work could be a problem. It will be a stay indoors, try to stay warm, kind of day. Time for art. Get my groove back. A good thing.

Photo 1 Today I completed my first bigger painting in a long time. It felt good. I am happy to be back at my easel.
I would like to thank photographer Mark Schroeder for giving me permission to use his beautiful and inspirational photo of Shuswap Lake. It was the perfect muse to set me back on my artistic journey.
“Shuswap Serenity” Acrylic on an 18″ x 24″ gallery canvas painted on all sides so that no frame is needed. $250.00 cdn
Photo 2 Today was our youngest Grand daughters 11th birthday. This little corgi is the card I made for her. Last summer when she stayed with us for a few days I asked her what would be her favorite dog breed and her response was “corgi”. Grandma enjoyed making this one.
Photos 3 and 4 These two small works will be available at the 44th annual Art Show and Sale in Sicamous on the Canada Day long weekend. They are both original acrylic on canvas board 8″ x 10″. $25.00 cdn
