In the foreground is a road leading into the distance and a line of trees behind a farmer’s field, now mostly brown in autumn.

The water is choppy with whitecaps here and there and across the bay is a low, dark mass of distant land.

Broken Red Pine at Sunset
Watercolour and ink, 11x15”
#art #watercolor #landscapeart #Halifax
A watercolour and ink painting. The background is a dusky sky with sweeping grey and purple clouds mixed with golden light. In the foreground are several trees done in ink. Most prominent is a scraggly red pine, typical of Nova Scotia. The top has been shorn off by a storm but the tree continues to send up small new stems amid all its broken branches. The other smaller trees are deciduous and bare of all their leaves, suggesting winter.

Never ask a linguist "Is that a word?" because you will always get the same response, "IT IS NOW!" 😃 delivered with some variation of jazz hands like you just won a very low stakes game show and I'm so sorry it's just part of the training it's not something we can control.

“Go gentle into the long night”
Watercolour on paper, 15x22”

Inspires by a photo a friend took. I loved the trees just catching the last light of the sun. It’s also a reflection on end-of-life and what a good, peaceful death looks like.

#blueskyartshow #light #art #landscape #watercolour
A large watercolour painting. In the center is a stand of conifer trees in the golden light of sunset, but with shadows cast by other trees slowly appearing at their bases. These lit trees are reflected on the surface of a small pond in the foreground. On the left there is another stand of spruce trees in shadow, with just the very tops catching the sun’s light. In the sky are some whispy clouds, and the foreground is small shrubbery in shadow.

#art #watercolor #painting #landscapepainting
A watercolour painting of mountains across a bay. The sky suggests à storm coming, and the largest mountain is bathed in the warm light of the sunset. The red of the mountain and the clouds is reflected in the water and in puddles in the foreground. À very small boat is crossing the bay, giving a sense of grandeur to the mountains.
