As someone who lived in Cape Breton. Your paintings should the spirit of Nova Scotia, beautiful.

I am trying to paint or draw something every day. but I keep skipping and telling myself I will do better tomorrow. But tomorrow never seems to come.

I really don't like winter. One of the things that gets me through it, is planning my first painting trip to my cabin.

New system vs my old system.

One thing I found weird. When you work with 2D pictures and dark tone is limited. Outside you see everything in 3D. Depth has a whole new meaning, and so do darks and shadows. I would have to close ( or cover ) one eye a lot to avoid getting overwhelmed.

I never went far. I stayed around my cabin but I have always wanted to try far away. Right now I take 3 trips from the jeep. I have done a lot of drawing from my Jeep. I have a drawing kit In the Jeep. I don't leave the Jeep. Normally I get a coffee and go park somewhere at a marina or something.

I plan on moving away from water mixable oil to true oils. And practice my drawing every day.
