Take Me Home 36x40, Oil on wood panel Summer road trips are one of my favourite things about summer. Oh the things you'll see! Some natural, some constructed, some imagined. Enjoy it all! A major highway heads off to the horizon. Two lanes heading in each direction with a grass median between. Farmers' fields on the right, low industrial buildings and a water tower on the left. On top of the water tower is a grove of pine trees. The sky is brilliant orange and pink with a setting sun off to the left.

A small branch of white blossom laid on a black table surface. Beneath it a part page of an open sketchbook showing a black pen and coloured pencil drawing of the same. Loose, fluid lines and scribbled colour used.

I painted the background with watercolour paints using the wet in wet method. I drew the trees with black ink and used white gel pens for the snow on the trees. The snow and reflections on the ground are mainly watercolour.

Day four of #ArtAdventCalendar.

Here’s a pen and pencil drawing of a woodcock (one of my favourite birds) flying out to forage as the full moon rises behind a distant hill.
This monochrome image depicts a woodcock, flying from the right to the left, over a field which is bordered by trees. In the background, above a distant hill, a full moon rises.

Upon the rocks where sea winds sigh.
A tower gleams beneath a painted sky.
Its lantern glows through the darkest night.
A whisper soft and a promise bright.
Though waves may roar and shadows creep.
Hope stands tall and it never sleeps.
Before the storm at St. Marys Lighthouse at Whitley Bay in the UK.

One year ago today, I made my first post here and set a goal to post at least one photo a day for a year. This choice has changed my life for the better in many ways.

A little thread about it is below if you care to read.

Winter has arrived. I have to get out more despite the cold.

On another note, my RF 35mm 1.8 macro might be my favorite lens!

Sunburst at sunset. A warming sun peaks through clouds and trees along the Miami-Erie Canal and Maumee River in the spring of 2022. #sunset #nature #water #ohio
Broken gray clouds near sunset allow a burst of light to filter through. Patches of blue sky are overhead, as the high water of spring races through the canal and river beyond.

Strongly inspired by Québec landscapes, he mainly depicts familial scenes or moments of daily life in the province.A warm light and happiness always emanate from his paintings which highlight the many joys of life, both small and great, through simplicity and an abundance of colours.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #SongBirds. A male Yellow-headed Blackbird making the sound of a seized metal gate being forced open. Anyone familiar with their song will understand.

Sometimes, if you stand by the side of a brook…
Reflection of a tree in a brook. Snow on the ground and tall grasses on the lower left. Blue water.

A view looking straight up into the interior dome of a grand basilica, showing concentric stone arches and rows of tall arched windows that let in bright natural light. The circular opening is framed by dark vaulted ceilings in the foreground, with sculpted angels positioned on the supporting arches. The architecture is highly detailed, with patterned stonework and ornate carvings, creating a dramatic contrast between the illuminated dome and the shadowed surroundings.

"The ripple of water, the shade of the sky
are mine; it is still the same, my life."~Rainer Maria Rilke

#YellowThu #WaterLily #FlowerReport #EastCoastKin #SmArtist #photography #photographer #Art #BloomScrolling #flowers #PhotographersOfBlueSky #FlowersOnBlueSky #PhotographersUnited Poem in Alt
A water lily sits alone in the pond. Opening to the morning light and showing off its yellow center to the pollinators. Accompanied by a poem by Rainer Maria Rilke. Translated by A. Poulin Water Lily Poem My whole life is mine, but whoever says so will deprive me, for it is infinite. The ripple of water, the shade of the sky are mine; it is still the same, my life. No desire opens me: I am full, I never close myself with refusal- in the rythm of my daily soul I do not desire-I am moved; by being moved I exert my empire, making the dreams of night real: into my body at the bottom of the water I attract the beyonds of mirrors...
