While hubby naps I get time for art. Here I have sketched our girl (ours is the black and white one) and one of the boats tied up across from us at the marina. Lots of challenging angles and curves to tackle not to mention perspective. Hope you are enjoying your weekend. Cheers Susan

This month you get to see me at one of my favourite summer pastimes. Something our boating friends and I have named “Beer Bobbing” or in my case “Wine Bobbing”. I can wile away an entire summer afternoon tethered to the swim grid of our boat, ensconced on my “floaty thingy”, sipping on a thermos of chilled wine or cider and just watch the world go by. A pastime that can’t be beat. Talk about relaxing. Don’t forget the sun screen!
Looking forward to seeing what my other selfie artists come up with.
Cheers, Susan
The Princess

She was sitting there amongst the luxury yachts. An old girl. In boating world one could say she has lovely lines and character. Her name, Placencia Princess. These days she is relegated to tourism and sight seeing cruises in Belize. I can’t help but wonder about her past life. I thought her worthy of some attention so I painted this for her. One Princess to another. 🙂
This painting has been on and off my easel since I got home from Belize last winter. Until now life got in the way of finishing it. It was a challenge but here she is in all her splendid glory.
Cheers, Susan
“A Summer Storm”

A reminder that neither our lake or all our boating experiences are calm, peaceful and relaxing. Our lovely Shuswap Lake can turn on you in a heart beat. Every summer we ride out several of these storms. Last summer there were some dandy blows! We have witnessed the wind change direction at least six times in under an hour. The waves can come crashing in from any direction on top of one another. Daunting. The channel marker is obliterated by the storm breakers and spray. Lightening, thunder everything can be thrown at us lowly boaters. Sheets of rain or even hail can pound down. Visibility is nil, zero, nadda. It all leaves one wondering what’s coming next? Fortunately storms on the Shuswap are short lived. Soon the adrenalin rush has passed leaving in its wake another Shuswap boating experience to share and talk about for days to come. Of course one never has time to grab a camera when they are bouncing around on a dock or boat or watching safely from shore so this painting is from memory. Hope you enjoy the experience!! Cheers Susan
