“Thanksgiving at the Lake”, 14″ x 11″ oils on canvas – 2021
Thanksgiving is a traditional time for Ontario cottagers to close their cottage for the winter, or at least prepare it for winter visits. One last canoe ride is a great time for reflection on the past summer in anticipation of the next one. Gallery: Humans and Their World

Bee-ing There, oils on gallery canvas, 10″ x 10″. My inspiration was the Echinacea in my garden which is usually visited by bees all summer long.
Early Autumn at the Lake, acrylics on canvas, 8″ x 16″ came from a moment on the deck at our cottage. We chose to leave a maple sapling alone that was growing very close to the deck. It rewards us each autumn with glorious colour.
