This piece, completed late 2011, is a current favourite of mine. It is called "Middle Beach - the Stones and Seaweed Leave an Impression," it measures 16" x 16" and is oil on canvas. The inspiration for this piece came from a photograph I took while in Tofino of a section of beach where there was an extensive network of impressions in the sand that had been made by some seaweed which had since been taken by the tide back out to the ocean. The stones remained, surrounded by this network. I decided to also do a small study of each of the stones on 6" x 6" canvases:
"Middle Beach - Embedded."
"Middle Beach - Go West."
"Middle Beach - Nestled In."
