“Wintering Jelly Beans” revisits a view of the colorful houses of St. John’s, Newfoundland, but in the dead of winter when the colors are more muted.

This morning I finished this wintry scene of water fowl on Quidi Vidi Lake. It unexpectedly led to the discovery of the story of Michael the goose, who lived on that lake for about ten years.

This morning I completed the painting “Foraging,” which depicts a wintry moment, a snapshot in time before a sudden flurry of action. Two nights ago the annual charity auction to support Newfoundland Rugby saw my “Lobster Cove Head Lighthouse” sell for $1,300.

Yesterday I completed the painting “Off Sandy Strait,” a winter scene featuring a caribou off the Buchans highway in Newfoundland. The other news is that the painting I finished before this one, “Lobster Cove Head Lighthouse,” will be featured in a live charity auction

On New Years Eve, I finished the painting “Lobster Cove Head Lighthouse,” a scene in Gros Morne National Park on the west coast of Newfoundland.

Today I completed the painting “Steeplechase,” which was inspired by re-reading some of the novels of Dick Francis.

I’ve posted  a new painting, “Narrows Below.” It’s a view of the entrance to the harbor in St. John’s, Newfoundland, from the viewpoint of Signal Hill.

I’m pleased to announce that the painting “Rosie Waits” sold for $1,600 at last Friday’s charity auction to support Newfoundland rugby.
