Vancouver Island Blues, lodgepole pine at Nimkish Lake BC, 18H x 24W inches soft pastels on paper. Blues because of the main colors, but also because I’m a little blue that crossing the border into Canada is still so complicated. Hopefully by the end of the year most restrictions will have been lifted!

Stormy Skies at Dawn, Denman Island BC Canada – 18H x 24W inches soft pastel on paper. I’m using up the watercolor paper blocks that I ordered online. I didn’t like the paper quality enough for watercolors, but it has a nice tooth for soft pastels.

Stellar’s Jays finished
Friday, May 11th, 2018
Stellar’s Jays finished, Nimkish Lake campsite, Vancouver Island BC, 18H x 24W inches watercolors on 140 lb. cold pressed. Framed size 27H x 33W inches: white mat and white wood frame with crackle finish.
Stellar’s Jays are not seen in groups like this, perhaps only seen 3 together at most, so in that sense the portrayal is not accurate, but the aim here is to show a collage of 11 birds representing their distinct character.
