Summer Sketches
Two weeks of summer vacation – much of it at Waskesiu Lake in Prince Albert National Park – gave me plenty of time for a watercolor sketch or two – or ten! Here are four to share with you.
Beach Brolley Bonanza
I love umbrellas at the beach – even though mine went airborn while I was working on this painting. Misfortune was narrowly averted. Rest assured no people or animals were injured in the creation of this image!
Pastel Pastiche
What to do after the morning juice, cereal and journal? Break out the paints and the sketchbook, of course.
Kapasiwin Beachfront
Rowboat, paddleboats, kayaks, canoes, tiki huts. Tiki huts? What’s with that? I thought the boreal forest was a palm free zone!

Beach Bush Beauty
When you’re at the beach, you spend most of your time oriented to the sun, gazing out over the water. There’s even more to discover, if you turn the other way.
Thank you for sharing. You really do have a knack!
Great work. I especially love the Beach Umbrella Bonanza!
What a wonderful way to spend your vacation. You consistently model your message. Bravo!
Very impressive! As I’ve recently taken up the brush & pencil for sketches you have encouraged me! Looking forward to seeing & doing more! Enjoy your messages always-good for the soul!
