Grouse Mountain

 I visited Grouse Mountain and took loads of wonderful photos which I have yet to upload on here! I did several drawings of the day I'd had and only recently did I finish painting one of them. I like the finished piece alot because it reminds me of the lumberjack show and how funny yet impressive that show was. With me being English also, Ive never seen a lumberjack show so the whole event felt very Canadian! Photos of the bears and bird show to follow soon!

I lost someone very special... 
but she has remained in my heart and dreams and recently I tried to make an illustration of this darling woman. The drawing did not turn out how I was imagining. Really, it was impossible to capture the magic of her smile and the cluttered but brilliant kitchen. I tried and in some ways its nice because this picture reminds me of some of the things I miss. But I will try again and hope I can keep her memory alive with such illustrations xxx
