Dave's Sweater is Finally Done

Image
Having had technical problems with my computer for a month or more. I have not been able to post or add photos. So long over due is a blog about finishing Dave's Sweater. I was originally going to to knit it as a Christmas gift but then I  became amgitious to finish  it for his birthday July 6th. So with hard work I did finish it. I was working right to the last day sewing the sides together and fixing any loose ends needing finishing. I am pleased with the results, although I do want to bring the sides under the arms as they are a bit wider than I think ideal. It has been fun knitting a whole sewater as lately I have been doing small projects. I did find it hard having to adjust to the pattern and custom fitting it to his body. For example his arms are long and I needed to make them longer than the pattern. But I know that it is a good learing experience as a pattern is not made for everyone exactly so you do need to make adjustment.

Most of the pieces in Flora are acrylic on canvas. While grounded in observation, the paintings are not bound to realism; instead, I play with colours such as soft pink backgrounds and unexpected hues to evoke the magi...

Image
 I have an art show currently at the Gibsons public market from mid June to mid August. I hope you get a chance to take a look while enjoying the market.  I have two series a the market. On the mail floor I have my coast series. “Going Coastal” Going coastal is a collection of some of my art works inspired by living on the Sunshine Coast   Living on the Sunshine Coast, we are lucky to have many beaches and viewpoints of the ocean. There are many water sports or walks where you get to bask in the beauty. I enjoy kayaking, outrigger paddling, swimming, walks on the beach and the harbours, beach days, reading on the beach, hunts for heart rocks and enjoying sunsets. These are truly my favorite things about living on the coast. I find just looking at the water can be healing. I believe we can all relate to its calm energy and many delights from whale watching to eagle and heron sightings. I painted most of the paintings in acrylic on canvas. I enjoyed...
