These make excellent birthday cards ! I am designing 12 images based around the months of the year and the old Celtic luna months. They will reflect the changing of the seasons and the ever turning wheel of the year, the magic and mystery attatched to each part of the cycle and any special festivals falling in those months. I hope you enjoy them as much as I am enjoying creating them :) Blessings Angie* “October – and the skies are cool and gray / O’er stubbles emptied of their latest sheaf, / Bare meadow, and the slowly falling leaf. / The dignity of woods in rich decay / Accords full well with this majestic grief / That clothes our solemn purple hills to-day, / Whose afternoon is hush’d, and wintry brief / Only a robin sings from any spray. And night sends up her pale cold moon, and spills / White mist around the hollows of the hills, / Phantoms of firth or lake; the peasant sees / His cot and stockyard, with the homestead trees, / Islanded; but no foolish terror thrills / His perfect harvesting; he sleeps at ease. “ William Allingham

“Yellow Moon” is part of the Winter, and Sepia (see others below) Collection….this is part of the actual town in the song, but instead of using the usual winter colours, I chose to do the whole landscape in yellow, even adding a glaze of yellow on the snow, giving the impression of a golden glow over everything…the “Dream Comfort” of a memory... / The sketch is from my files, original picture of North Western Ontario, from images for artists… Watercolour on Arches Paper… There is a town in north Ontario, / With dream comfort memory to spare, / And in my mind / I still need a place to go, / All my changes were there. / Blue, blue windows behind the stars, / Yellow moon on the rise, / Big birds flying across the sky, / Throwing shadows in our eyes. ..Neil Young Listen to Helpless Turn up the speakers…. / /

/ “After the Storm” is part of the Winter Collection....It is from my Archives, and it’s the first watercolour I ever painted....it was painted in 1993…I found the image in a long out of print instruction book on watercolours…it is a picture of snow fall in Northern Ontario, with which I am very familiar, since I lived in the area for many years..although I have had many offers, I never wanted to sell it due to it’s associations. / See others from the current winter Collection below... Watercolour on Arches Paper… First snow, that cold, white, winding sheet, lies stretched o’er all the ground, / It shrouds the world, and all that’s in it, while winter doth abound. / Death mask adorned, winter’s partial span will grow to join together, / Both autumn’s death and springs rebirth, thus life rolls on as ever...Matsuo Basho / / /
/ “Bamboo Night is Part of the new “Tropics” Collection... Watercolour on Fabriano Artistico Hot Pressed Paper.. The aura of bamboo grove by night is charming to behold, / The moon peeks thru the leaves painting the grove in silhouette and silvery shadows, / The trees resonate with the heartbeat of romance, / Each knot feels like the ladder to advance to the higher level of ecstasy of love. J.Narain.. /
/ “Fandango” is part of the new Collection “Tropics”.. the coconut tree in hot colours, temperature and mood, close-up…inspired by the Latin Dance the Fandango, with music by the Gypsy Kings… Watercolour on Fabriano Artistico Hot Pressed Paper… Dance a light fandango / Take me ‘round and ‘round / Dance a light fandango / Never let me down Steve Miller Band Gypsy KIngs Baila Me (I danced) / Fandango (The Dance).. /
/ “Imagination “is part of the series “The Trees”, all the seasons together, inspired by the Green movement, and painted in Watercolour on Arches Hot Pressed Paper..see others below The tree which moves some to tears of joy, is in the eyes of others, only a green thing that stands in the way. / Some see Nature all ridicule and deformity, and some scarce see Nature at all. / But to the eyes of the man of imagination, Nature is Imagination itself. / William Blake, 1799, The Letters* / / / /

/ This is page 2 of the Summer Journal…as with all my other visual Journals, it will be a record of events, meals, painting experiments, parties, recipes etc…this is a large journal much like the others, and I am looking forward to filling it up with memories…Pg 1 is all about beer, a drink which is beloved in Canada and drunk here all year long, and now page 2 is Egg and Chips still in the baking pan, which can go with beer too… ..summer’s here and the time is ripe as the saying goes…journal page subjects are casual and unstructured…I don’t fuss or fiddle with the paintings too much and I try to complete each in one sitting...

featured in The World as We See It 10-06-2009 Time, time, time, see whats become of me / While I looked around / For my possibilities / I was so hard to please / But look around, leaves are brown / And the sky is a hazy shade of winter Hear the salvation army band / Down by the riverside, its bound to be a better ride / Than what youve got planned / Carry your cup in your hand / And look around, leaves are brown now / And the sky is a hazy shade of winter Hang on to your hopes, my friend / Thats an easy thing to say, but if your hopes should pass away / Simply pretend / That you can build them again / Look around, the grass is high / The fields are ripe, its the springtime of my life Ahhh, seasons change with the scenery / Weaving time in a tapestry / Wont you stop and remember me / At any convenient time / Funny how my memory slips while looking over manuscripts / Of unpublished rhyme / Drinking my vodka and lime But look around, leaves are brown now / And the sky is a hazy shade of winter Look around, leaves are brown / Theres a patch of snow on the ground… created with Incendia
“Spellbound” is part of the Winter and Portrait Collection…the painting captures the feeling of submitting ones own will to the tyrannical demands of the storm….my portrayal is one of a goddess of winter…with the red berries in her hair, she embodies its stillness, its sense of silence, darkness, and bitter cold..the falling snow is a “poem of the air,” wrote Longfellow, where the “troubled sky reveals the grief it feels.” / Winter is a time to concentrate on renewing and affirming human relationships. Watercolour on Arches Not Paper… VIEW THE ENTIRE WINTER COLLECTION HERE The night is darkening round me, / The wild winds coldly blow; / But a tyrant spell has bound me / And I cannot, cannot go. The giant trees are bending / Their bare boughs weighed with snow. / And the storm is fast descending, / And yet I cannot go. Clouds beyond clouds above me, / Wastes beyond wastes below; / But nothing dear can move me; / I will not, cannot go...E. Bronte / Forever Autumn VIEW THE ENTIRE PORTRAIT COLLECTION HERE
