Prairie Studio

Jul 18, 2008 at 12:27 AM

This summer, my wife and I are in rural southern Saskatchewan, developing our practice as full-time artists. The prairie landscape, light, and relative isolation of the area are ideal for major studio work time. I'm continuing the themes begun in Alberta, with more emphasis on graphite, something never really explored in my major works before. I have so far completed a painting/drawing on masonite, incorporating graphite and acrylic roses, and several drawings. A second floral painting will begin immediately. I am also planning on an addition to the Constellation Series, focusing on the the southwest, i.e. Pueblo and Dine country.
