What a great day. Had a paint out organized by Alfonso Tajada at Panorama Park in Deep Cove. You can see pictures of the event over at the Plein Air BC blog.

Plein Air :: March 11, 2010
Posted on March 11, 2010
I was able to get out for about and hour and a half this afternoon. Nice and cloudy with some rain puddles here and there. I went back to the spot I found near Minnekada Park and it was much different to paint this time around. Everything was much more muted. Froze my fingers off too. :)

Aaaaaaah, getting out today was great. Cloudy in the morning but then the sun came out in the afternoon and really warmed everything up.
In the morning I went to Port Moody and painted the boardwalk over a marsh, but ended up forgetting the camera. :(
Next outing took me down the road to Minnekada Park. I was able to find two areas to pull over and paint a couple great scenes. Let me know what you think in the comments.

Kunamokst :: Unveiled
Posted on February 16, 2010
The Kunamokst mural was unveiled last Saturday, the 13th, at the West Vancouver Spirit Square in West Vancouver.
I was unable to attend the event, but I heard it went over really well. I look forward to visiting it when it moves to Galiano Island.
The mural was a collaboration of 180 artists painting individual panels that measured 12×12" each. In total the mural is 21 x 11 feet. It must be spectacular to see in person.

Mural Mosaic Project :: Kunamokst
Posted on August 13, 2009
I took the plunge and am participating in a Mural Mosaic project call Kunamokst (meaning "together" in Chinook) that involves painting a 12×12" wooden panel that will be used to make up a much larger mural. When finished the mural can be seen online or in person on Galiano Island after it gets installed.
I’ve selected the three panels that I would prefer to work on and they will send me one out of my choices. I have a strong preference to what panel I want to paint as the painting came together as soon as I saw it. The other choices intrigued me but nothing has come to mind for a painting. Keep those fingers crossed.
I’ll update my blog when I get the panel and also on the progression of the painting.
