My series of "tidal" paintings is on exhibition, two in the Victoria Conference Centre and four in the Pegasus Gallery. Another trip to Northern B.C. is the source for several paintings being developed with emphasis on the vast spaces and the pre-winter light of fall colours and first snows. Dark conifers with aspens and willows inspire colour and tonal contrasts with subtle variations in warm and cool colour.

Helen and I were very pleased with our exhibition in this public gallery. Our work was presented in a delightful professional way. The octagonal galleries suited the presentation, giving our paintings and sculpture room to breath and be seen to advantage.
