"Crow and Gate No. 2" was completed pond-side and is now showing at the Federation Gallery during "Canvas Unbound" running April 12 to 24. The show features a wide variety of works from many fine artists. Check it out on-line (http://artists.ca/show/current_exhibition)

Honoured to have "Bamfield #1" awarded third prize in Vancouver FCA's Landscape Exhibition running Feb 16 to 28 at the Federation Gallery.

There's a pull-out on the roadside over looking Hanalei Valley on Kauai. It was raining, as it often does on Kauai, resulting in some small pockmarks on this acrylic sketch.

It's enjoyable work to pack up a painting, take it up to Canada Post and ship it to FCA's Federation Gallery and, with some luck, I won't be paying return shipping.  "Bamfield No. 1" will be part of the gallery's Landscape exhibition running February 17 to March 6. Always a privilege to have my work hang there.

Thanks to the Nanaimo Art Group for inviting me to give today's demo. I had a lot of fun with this enthusiastic and friendly group.

First Show of the year. "Glacier Lake No. 1" was selected for the Federation of Canadian Artists "Artist's Choice" show at the Federation Gallery, Granville Island running February 2 to 14, 2016. As the title suggests, there will be many fine paintings in a wide variety. Great gallery, great location,

I'm happy to report that O'Toole's Pass sold and has been shipped to it's new home.
