finally a rock for myself!
I've been busy the past few weeks putting in the vegetable garden and doing yardwork, and things are looking so great, that I made this for myself. I can always do more ;)

Celtic humpbacks: The Spiral Dance
Celtic Humpbacks: The Spiral Dancemixed media on watercolour board
for sale at the MacDonald Museum Gallery, Middleton, NS
A new painting I've been hurrying to finish. It was delivered to the MacDonald Museum Gallery today. I really wanted to have something with my whales design in the show. I've tried to represent the whales bubble cloud feeding: the whale(s) swims in an upward spiral around a school of fish (ie. herring), all the while emitting a string of bubbles from hsi/her blowhole. The bubbles form a curtain around the fish, who think it is a solid barrier and pack in closer together, making it easier for the whale to swim through with open mouth and CHOMP! From the surface of the water, it looks like the sea is coming to a boil as the bubbles rise up and break.
The exhibit is called "In The Neighbourhood" and features the work of artists from Digby and Kings Counties. The opening is Sunday, June 24th, 2007 from 2:00-4:00 pm, and the exhibit will continue until Labour Day weekend.
