3.5″ X 2.5″ acrylic on paper ACEO I went at this a different way this time. I took an old photo, messed around with it in Brushes with much the same method that I used yesterday by painting on a new layer so that nothing remains of the original photo… [...]
IPad painting I took yesterday’s little painting and traced it in Brushes on a new layer. Then I deleted the painted layer and continued in Brushes. Variation apon variation. [...]
2.5″X3.5″ Acrylic on paper ATC. Driving home from Niagara-on-the-Lake to St. Catharines at around 5:00 on February evening, this is what you will see. The image that I used is from a previous year, we hardly have any snow this year. [...]
5.5″X7″ Pencil & marker in Moleskine A couple of days ago I was walking on the common and came across this interesting “mashup”. It was probably rather a challenging subject for a 10 minute sketch but I wanted to give it a try. The maple and th… [...]
3.5″X5.5″ Moleskine sketches Two different lunchtimes in (more-or-less) the same location. Looking out onto Lake Ontario towards Toronto, about a mile from the mouth of the Niagara River. [...]

Various Moleskine sketches I haven’t been very productive of late. What with dealing with the various household problems (storm-damage to porch & roof, phone, dryer, stove, air-conditioning, printer/scanner) and summer-time guests, I haven’t be… [...]
5.5″X3.5″ Watercolour in Moleskine “Use it or lose it” they say. It certainly seems to be true in my case. I have been drawing and painting so infrequently recently that I find it hard to know even where to begin. I find library books and trawl t… [...]
5.5″X3.5″ Watercolour in Moleskine Another of my, previously unpublished, lunchtime sketches. This was a few weeks ago on the Niagara-on-the Lake Common. The April 28 storm took its toll on the trees here too. Many magnificent old specimens were upr… [...]
