Lawn Bowlers

This is a painting I did for the annual Square Foot show at the AWOL Gallery in Toronto, which takes place August 5-21. Dashed down to the gallery today and made the deadline. Whew! I guess I am not the only last minute Nellie - the rules specify the painting must be dry!! All entries in the show are 12 x 12". Apparently it is very popular and I think there are about 500 paintings on display. I will be going to the opening on the 6th!

I really like the long shadows of the early summer evening, and the motion of the two bowlers. Quite a change from dogs!

At the Park

I have seen this dog on several occasions at the park where I walk my dog and others, and I don't think I have seen her without the ball in her mouth. She was really game for posing for my camera too!

I am getting to be happy with my dog paintings - not fussing so much anymore (that's because I am always in a rush and have no patience!)

Old City Hall

This is a view Toronto's Old City Hall framed by the modern buildings of the financial district.

The Old City Hall was built in 1899, and is currently used as a provincial court house. In the 1960's a new city hall was built, and there were plans to demolish the old building, but good sense prevailed, and it was preserved.
