The Road Home

Today was one of those incredible days in the studio...I have 4 paintings on the go and every stroke of paint seemed to lead to another idea!
This is a small study 8" x !0" I did of where I used to live in Mont-Tremblant. I began with a pencil sketch and moved quickly to the board to sketch it in
water soluble graphite, which I love to use in combination with the acrylic paint. It is an emotionally charged piece since this was where I turned
off the road to go home for the last 20 years. My life has changed dramatically in the last year and so this was both a tribute to and a celebration of
all the past years that have led me home to where I am right now! There is sadness and joy intermingled with the paint. I feel good about the results,
I recognize a place within that is reflected in this small intimate landscape.
