'Mitchell's Lookout'



Pretty wet out on the Mitchell painting grounds today. 
But I waited for a brief window between the bands of showers...
nice sunny break at the end.
 Here on the south Island, April's cloud show
has not disappointed, with daily
extravaganzas in the spring sky.
Oh to have the energy to paint and capture
everyone of them, throughout everyday.

'Morning at Island Cove'

Wonderful morning painting yesterday. The Fawn lilies were
 out along the trails with a few Wild Onions and Camas.
 A nuthatch was busy excavating a nesting cavity
 just a few feet away from my painting spot.
Otters and seals were feeding just below me 
along with geese, swans and diving ducks. 
Just as I was getting near the finish 
the fog rolled in, 
very thickly...
