"The
Healing Hands of Intention"
18 x 14
inches oil on linen mounted to hardboard
(
Portrait Allegory)
The idea for this painting came suddenly upon me while on a
walk. It marks the start of a new category to be added
among those of Portraiture, Landscape, Homes &
Cottages, Historical and Still Life. I now include
"Allegory" among them.

"Red
Admiral Butterfly"
10 x 12
inches oil on canvas mounted to hardboard
(
Portrait Category)
I was out about looking for interesting landscapes to
paint when, looking directly to my left I spied this butterfly
alighted upon some flowers. At the time I had no idea what
kind it was but of courses later, in my studio I looked it up
and learned a little more about the natural world we live in.

"Dandelions
Edge" 10
x 12 inches oil on canvas mounted
to hardboard
(
Landscape Category)
At the foot of a cascading waterfall by the Elora Mill, I
saw these familiar yellow flowers of the dandelion hanging
on tenaciously to a rocky outcropping. Of course it
quickly dawned on me that this might make an interesting
subject in a painting.

"View
over the Gorge" 12
x 20 inches oil on canvas mounted
to hardboard
(
Landscape Category)
I think of myself as a "Portrait Artist",
however for me such a title includes more than the painting
of people or pets. In "View over the
Gorge" I have painted the portrait of a geological
outcropping that is, in its own way, as unique as any image
of a person or animal, or so it seems to me.

"Redwing
Blackbird" 12
x 16 inches oil on canvas mounted
to hardboard
(
Portrait Category)
On my daily walk down by the creek, I came across this
fellow when to my
delight he landed not more than 15 feet to my right, it took
only a moment for me to realize that here might be a
possible art subject.
I usually carry
my D-LSR camera with me while on my daily constitutional and
I carry it in a bag that allows me an almost gunslinger
capability to draw it out and start shooting. Lucky for me I
had it poised to take a shot when this male blackbird with his bright
red wing edges, landed, and offered himself up for my portrait
considerations.
