Here a great artist I found this morning that I would like to promote. He's Larry Seiler and his utube video on the painterly style is excellent. I will post that later.

Butchart Garden Path

This is a 16x20 oil painted from a Butchart Gardens series. What a magnificient place. Well worth the entry fee. If you are ever in Victoria, British Columbia don't miss these gardens. If you got my Christmas card, this was the place.

Reily's Fountain

This is the piece I did plein air with this group years ago. It sold in Energen and I actually wish I had it back. I will just have to go to the governor's backyard and paint another one.

Peggy's Cove, Halifax

Last summer John and I went to Halifax and rented a car. We had a great day of taking pictures and wound up at Peggy's Cove. I now know how famous it is, but at the time I just thought, how picturesque.
