North Saskatchewan River
Monday, July 25th, 2022
After The Rain, North Saskatchewan River and Canola fields near the Petrofka Bridge and Blaine Lake, Saskatchewan.
18H x 24W inches soft pastels on paper, 27H x 33W” framed size.
Driving north to the Petrofka Bridge, about 60 km from Saskatoon, the land is completely flat. The occasional hills in this area are anomalies, partially created by the North Saskatchewan River cutting through canola farmlands. The river is glacier-fed, running through Edmonton AB, joining with the South Saskatchewan River, and eventually emptying into Hudson’s Bay 1287 kms (800 miles) away.

Double Daisies
Friday, July 15th, 2022
Double Daisies, 18H x 24W inches soft pastels on paper. I look forward to these blooming every year. They’re planted as a group only in one area of the property so they can be fully appreciated. They wilt in the hot sun, but in a cool morning breeze they shake like pom-poms, waving in and out of their own shadows.

Wild Mustard
Friday, May 27th, 2022
Wild Mustard, Coppell TX, 18H x 24W inches soft pastels on paper. Like most invasive species, beautiful flowering en masse. That and being edible are two of many reasons it has been able to flourish, robbing resources and space usually occupied by Texas Bluebonnets and other native plants now said to be in danger because of it.
