Six cedar-rails 2021 Cattle Point oils 8x10

Cattle Point 2021

This is my favourite place to paint here in Victoria BC. This is a plein air painting.

I learnt a lot about composition from the art educator  Ian Roberts, 

a Canadian painter working in the United States now. He has

books and videos on painting which are readily available.

"Scarlet Macaw" free image postcard size, gouache

 

I saw this cutie on one of those free image sites.

"Dallas Road Cliff, Rail Fence" oil on stretched canvas 16" x 20"

Oil sketch  above, actual photo below.

 This scene is most visited by local Victorians in BC. A lot of dog owners let their pets run hassle-free, and artists love it for the many scenes to paint in the area.

My family says my painting isn't finished but I know it is because when artists have realized their intentions - it's DONE!

Sketch from TV "Ball Kid, Madrid 2017" watercolour postcard size

 "Ball Kid, Madrid 2017"

TV gives one endless subjects for sketching - instead of Federer

 or other greats I chose this  this ball kid.

"House in the Fraser Valley" postcard size, gouache

"House in the Fraser Valley"

 Gouache is like watercolour but has more body, giving a nice flat opaque appearance. I am doing well with it now after a few first tentative attempts.

And this image comes from my own visit to this exciting part of British Columbia. I hope you enjoy the vision before you.

"Coco" gouache postcard size 2021

Beloved pet of the Ingbritsons, Coco was quite a character - almost a mensch, one could say...

Painted with my new set of gouache paints. I'm getting used to the new medium now. 

 

"BMW 3-Wheeler" postcard size

These babies are TINY and you have to open the front in order tp get in, in fact the steering wheel collapses to one side to help you...gouache on watercolour paper postcard size.
 

"Alongside" oil 24 x 30

 Neighbours at anchor in the Pacific Northwest. The weather is good, the winds are calm for good sailing. We are out of the shallows and we are safely in the bay, flags flying.

"Blue VW" gouache

 Experimenting with my brand-new gouache paint I did this Blue Volksie today - I like the matt finish of this paint, it looks as though it was done with chalk - such is the opacity of the paint.

 I like it. Postcard size. 

"Blue Jib"

 

"Blue Jib"

Carol Marine uses oils and gouache. This latter medium sounds great so I bought myself a set from Amazon (very quick delivery) and set about using it on plain MDF, no canvas or gesso. I was surprised how quickly it dried into a  nice mat finish. Click to enlarge the image.

"Schooner off Friday Harbor" Washington State

 Schooners in British Columbia and indeed Washington State are a joy to behold. They cut such a grand image on our seaways. This painting is  new for 2021 and the size is the classic 8 x 10 inches in oils. Contact me for details. Find me by searching artist Ron Wilson.
