CASTAWAY STONES







Asleep in the deep! The whales have been frozen in until this past week and have emerged in the recent thaw unscathed! Hurray!



I have brought them back for photographs. I am hoping to be accepted to the Toronto Outdoor Art Exhibition. I have been twice before in the encaustic medium but not with this subject. I need to supply the committee with 10 slides but unfortunately most of my pieces are frozen in! I will have to wait a little longer to bring in the pieces from the stream. I will also need to complete at least four more before the end of the month! Good grief. I have several good ideas I'm just hoping they will be completed in time. Fingers crossed.

CASTAWAY STONES







I would like to intoduce the latest design for casting away... Beachball Lemurs!! Come the spring breakup this and hopefully its' larger counter parts, still under production, will be launched. I will then be able to track their progress, lest I be cited for polluting ,with my video cam . Their maiden voyage will launch locally but I hope to take the fleet further afield as the summer progresses.

CASTAWAY STONES











GROUND HOG DAY!!
6 More weeks of WINTER!!! BLAST and darn it!
I'm pretty sure this pelican has not seen it's shadow! Neither has the flamingo (completely buried) as are the whales at least I think they are I haven't been able to get near them for the blocks of ice along the shoreline!! Spring Please!
