Still Standing

Recently I have been working on a series of prairies paintings. I really love the subject matter. Having grown up in Saskatchewan, this is very close to my heart.

I love driving through the prairies, as the gentle warm winds blow, stopping often to take photos of sway-back barns, and old sheds...still standing through years of use and changing seasons.

• start out with a warm background colour
• I sketch the outlines of the barn, sheds and trees
• next comes the sky and the clouds
• at this stage I often forget to take more photos as I get excited about the process, until the final piece is finished

"Still Standing", 12 x 24" acrylic on canvas

At this time of year I like to clean up my studio and get ready for the new year. I am a prolific painter who lives in a very small house. I need to make room for some new work ...
