Pilot No. 1 (boat on the Halifax Harbour, Nova Scotia)

Oct 9th, 2011 Leave a comment

I went downtown today hoping Vim and Vigour (tugboats) would be resting along the waterfront but it appears they are busy elsewhere. So I found Pilot No. 1 tied to the waterfront and found a nice shady spot to plein air paint. It was about 24C today, absolutely fantastic painting weather. Fun sketching along the...

Snow is still on the ground

Donated to a local animal welfare group as a fundraiser. =^..^= This is an earlier and smaller oil sketch for a winter landscape sketch near Wolfville, Nova Scotia. I’m trying to determine how much of the red soil should poke through the snow in this painting (not very much). I intend to work up a...

Urban Sketch in Oils I’ve evacuated the people and trees from this downtown Halifax setting to reveal the brick and mortar bones of the city in this small (12.5 x 17.5 cm) urban sketch in oils. Perhaps there should be flashing red lights, or a siren? Maybe even a tumbleweed?

Boat in St. Margaret's Bay (work in progress)

Here’s a painting that has been on and off my easel about a half dozen times over the last couple of years. The work I did on it over the past weekend is making this painting finally make sense to me. Prior to that it was too abstract. There is still work to be done...

Critical review:

Mary Ann Archibald is a sensitive portrait painter who captures a soul, and a story, as well as a likeness with a soft, gentle touch in her oil paintings. Her portrait of William Hall hangs in the Nova Scotia Legislature. Archibald also exhibits still lifes of flowers, demonstrating a gift for painting glass, and landscapes like Winter at Wolfville which perfectly captures the winter light and harsh blueness of the Minas Basin in winter.
