Dhalias in Red

Love those Dhalias! We bought the tubers a garage sale for a buck! They have flourished this year. Have gotten loads of pleasure from them-maybe it's worth digging them up and storing them over the winter.

Windy Day-Arrowhead

Hello, we are back from our travels and revelling in the splendour of fall. The last hurrah of the season and we will soon have no more flowers, raspberries, grass to cut, no more bare feet and no more colourful leaves on which to feast the eyes. Thank you Lord for the seasons!

Magnetawan Rocks

On our holiday we drove up to Magnetawan because the weather was lousy and the scenery there is beautiful. Practised painting rocks on a beautiful picnic area beside the falls and dam in the Magnetawan River. On this side of the rock there was a bit of protection from the cold wind.

White Birch in Arrowhead #231

On the campsite looking up into the top branches of a birch tree. This was a sunny day!

"Little Beauties"

I found these crabapples on the path to Lumby beach and thought the colours were lovely. Added the birch bark and pine cone and painted them on the sand of the parking lot.

Arrowhead Lake from Lumby Beach

The clouds kept whipping through with the wind chasing them which made it hard to catch them and paint my impression. That's the fun!

Arrowhead Park 2010

Yes, hello folks, it's been a while since the last entry. We have been away. Labour day weekend and week were spent near Huntsville in Arrowhead Provincial Park. There has not been as much painting as wished for because of the rainy weather. Still had a good time!

This little painting was done on the campsite. There were lot's of these logs rotting on the forest floor. While painting I heard someone shout that a bear was heading down to our campsite. It makes for a little nervous painting. Wonder if bears like acrylic paint?
