This painting is based on a photograph I took on a hike with a bunch of girlfriends a week ago.  We went out to Castle Glen near Collingwood, and saw the remains of the old "castle" there.  We came across a huge swath of goldenrod that could be seen through the woods along the trail.  It was brilliant.

Had a fantastic time out plein air painting with my friend Deirdre yesterday.  We were hanging out in Metcalfe forest, which is just a magical kind of place.  Though my canvas from yesterday needs a bit of work,  I took a ton of great photos which will inspire many new pieces.

This is a painting that I completed a couple of weeks ago.  Usually I struggle with naming paintings, though this one came to mind quite easily (and I love the name too).  I have found that it helps me to keep a running list of potential titles that I could use for paintings.  About 50% of the time I will use a name from the list, and other times the title will appear in the old noggin' during or after I have painted a piece.  How do you name your paintings?

I am heading to the northern region of the Bruce Pennisula this weekend for an amazing photo sourcing trip.  Along with a group of other artists, I will be staying at the Grebe Lodge in the Cabot Head Provincial Nature Preserve, along Georgian Bay south of Tobermory.  The weekend promises to provide some excellent foder for future paintings!!  Photos will be posted soon.

This is a beautiful old barn that we drive past on the way to the cottage.  I managed to get some amazing photos one evening as the sun was getting low in the horizon.
