This is another abstract using quinacridone crimson and pearlescent powder. I love the contrast with the stark black lines. It is 16x20, acrylic on canvas.

Sunrise over the prairies
This is a little acrylic painting (5x7) of the sunrise over a farm on the prairies. This is a very common scene in winter, when the night is incredibly dark, and the sunrises are spectacular.
Lighthouse, Halifax Harbour
I enjoyed the movement expressed in Emily Carr's style so much, I thought I would apply it to this lighthouse scene. Some of the fluidity and movement is lost in the digitization, but the original is quite stunning.

Carr painting
I have been painting quite a bit this past week but haven't taken any pictures of the finished product for posting. However, I did take a picture of this copy of an Emily Carr painting that I like. Her use of color was incredible, and the flowing forms evoke the swaying trees and the overpowering energy of the west coast rain forest. I find her style quite exciting, and plan to explore more of the Fauve/Group of Seven styles.
