Clouds at Billings Cove

Clouds at Billings Cove

picture 11x10 framed 16x20 $150

The best part about painting outdoors is that you have to think fast.  This sky changed as fast as I could look from my paper to the sky and back again.  The day in March was ever changing and moving with different effects across the water.   My friends and I all were trying to capture the fleeting seconds as it happened.  Quick colours and quick placing was the name of the day.

One very busy morning at Victoria Harbour, we sat and tried to capture the feeling of the busyness both with plane, boat and wild life.

Ghost Ships

Ghost Ships

Watercolour 16x20 framed $220

The ships came out of the fog and went back and forth while we were there painting.  This scene was painted right on the spot.  I may do some changing but so far it remains as it was done.  The layers from sky to shore were amazing.

Changing Weather

Changing Weather

Watercolour 11x14 unframed - In private Collection

Where we live the weather can change more often than you change your socks.  Just wait a minute and you can get what you want.  It is rather interesting and fun in lots of ways.  I hope this picture caught some of the "moment" as you stand on the shore and watch the variety of the time.  This is the West Coast and we see lots of little boats coming and going, for play and work.
