Happy Victoria Day!!

Its the long weekend, and between doing things around town with family that's visiting (touring the tulip festival and nice drive out to the country). I have found time to do a little bit of painting and sketching.

I tried something a bit out side of my comfort zone, drew and painted a barn with out any ink or lines. I like it and especially how the roof top turned out of the barn. And then I went back to my ink again and did another barn, I like it, but I regret that I put the fence in (just like in the picture I took of the barn). I might have to make a new painting of it, its really neat, it has both a stone section and a wood one and it looks like the stone part is much older.

And here is one of the many pictures I took from the Tulip festival, this one is from the Dows Lake area.

And I will leave you with a picture I took today from our nature walk down by Mer Bleue bog (board walk), you can see here how much it has changed since 10 days ago when I was there last time (you can see the other picture in my last post).

We were lucky to get some nice warm rain free day to do this today, and we even got to sit in a patio and enjoy a nice lunch (thank you so much K & R, love you both)... And now we are back home, taking it easy and yes, the rain is back. But the weekend is not over yet, so hopefully better weather tomorrow.
