So in all the family excitement during my 10-day visit to Cayman, it wasn’t until the last day that I found the opportunity to sit and pastel. Of course there was the frantic decision – what to paint? what to paint? – but I had been eyeing the beauty of some seagrape trunks through the doors, so it just made sense to choose that as my subject matter. I wanted to do a plein air painting and now I had the chance.
Here’s the process. These photos were taken with my phone so aren’t that brilliant – apologies.
Mum caught me as I was finishing up. You can see the tree trunks I was painting beyond.
So, I think that’s it for this time.
Thanks for sharing the journey 🙂

PS. Okay, so our trip home didn’t go as smoothly as we’d like. Approaching Toronto, we started circling…… We were diverted to Hamilton due to a freak snowstorm over Toronto airport and a VERY long story short, due to the delay, we were able to spend a day with my sister and her family in Ontario before heading home to the West Coast. Great silver lining!!

Glad you approve Lisa!!
Love, love, love it Gail. You are such a wonderful inspiration! Is there a possibility you will be giving another workshop on Salt Spring? Just asking.
Warmly,
