Fields Of May

'Fields of May'
oil on wood panel
9 x 12
'Today I walked through fields of grass
tall and waving they hid half of me
here and there bushes of wild roses stopped me
as I stood taking in their perfume
Barn swallows swooped low over the waving seed tops
my mind filled with memories I breathed deeply
In these fields of May'

Though most of you didn't see me I was there
painting at Beacon Hill yesterday...

October Morning-Beacon Hill

Oil on wood panel 6x8.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm thinking of getting out this afternoon.
The way the wind seems to be picking up it may
need to be some where protected.
Email me if you are interested.

Beacon Hill Park - Mayor's Grove by Jenn Wilson


Jenn Wilson painted this lively rendering of the fall leaves of Beacon Hill Park. It is at once fresh and light, with good contrast and colour.

Beacon Hill Park in the Fall(-ing rain!)


Yes it was raining steadily, so I set up my paints in the bandstand next to the children's playground. Of course it was a no-school day so several crocodiles of kids came sheltering in after a few rides on the wet swings. Bless 'em, some said my painting was "nice" although I struggled with it. Anyhows, here it is - unpretentious, loose and brushy.
