FERRY SAILING AT SUNSET " 8 x 16" Acryllic on Studio Board



 

 

While on vacation visiting my husbands nephew and family in Port aux Basque NL

I love to watch the ferry as it heads to Nova Scotia each evening passing
 by their house on the very edge of our province of Newfoundland.

The island a few meters off shore is Dingwells Island.

Quidi Vidi is a quaint fishing village near St. John's NL where I grew up.

Tourists flock there each year. I took the photo in 2013

and completed the painting in 2015

I painted this piece from a photo I took in the Barneys River area

where my sister and her husband reside.



SEA URCHINS INNER BEAUTY "16 X 19" Acryllic on Canvas 2016.

 

While walking on the rocks below our nephews house in Port Aux Basque NL in 2015, I came across two dried up sea urchins which I photographed with the intent of using the images in a painting. I later researched sea urchins and was pleasantly surprised to find images of their skeletons and that they were related to sand dollars.
