Sneak Peak











Here's the new painting I've been working on for the past few months.

It is a triptych, 4' x 15'. Today was the first day that I could haul all three of them out and have look at them. It was a little difficult getting a decent shot of the piece because it was windy. Secondly there is a spacing issue. The canvases are set up to allow a 6" gap between each one to allow for framing and proper hanging.

There are many more hours and days before completion. I am however glad to be able to give everyone a sneak peak. Once this piece is finished it will be entered into the Sooke Fine Show at the end of July.

I hope you enjoy the work.

Toronto Visit

I recently visited Toronto and got the chance to see where my first tryptich was installed. Bill Norgate, the owner of the piece is planning to change the wall colour and raise the paintings up a bit higher. This will lessen the blocking of the paintings by the equipment in his showroom. The wall colour change will bring some more warmth into the showroom space by picking up a colour from the tryptich. I really enjoyed meeting with Bill and having a chance to provide a little input in the hanging of this piece. Thanks again to my brother Norm for arranging the meeting and the tremendous hospitality shown by Norm, Helen, their daughter Linda, and Clive and my sister Linda. Cheers to all our friends new and old!

Size & Perspective

This will give you more of an idea of the size of the triptych. I shot this this morning at 7am prior to starting to work on the detail work that has to be done. As you can see it almost covers the entire end of our house. It has been a juggling act moving and working on each canvas because my work space is only 10'x10'.
