Travel Theme – Colourful
This week’s Travel Theme is “Colourful”, which is perfect for what has been happening in SW Ontario this week. I created this artwork because over the last few days we have been dumped on with two full days of snowfall. Followed by two days of non-stop heavy rain. Today we have high speed winds and

Travel Theme – Endearing
Being a lover of nature, animals and ‘most’ children the above image truly reflects endearing for me. Out in the field, a young boy with a baby lamb and his beloved dog; it warms my heart on every level. If you notice I created the image with a child from an era when life was a

Travel Theme: Meeting Places
For the Travel Theme this week I thought about when I lived in England and we would meet for tea and scones in the afternoon. The “official” name is Cream Tea which consisted of a pot of tea, scones, clotted cream and jam. it really is a delicious treat. I really enjoy a nice cup

Travel Theme – Wood
Wood is one of the most used natural resources that we have. It provides us with so many things in our daily lives but, if you are like me, you don’t really stop and think about just how much that is. As a tree, we are blessed with the beauty of its autumn leaves or

Travel Theme – Illuminated
In light of (no pun intended) the major power outage that Toronto residents suffered after the ice storm just before Christmas; I felt the above artwork was perfect for this week’s theme…illuminated. As we all know, it is so easy to take every day things for granted, until it is taken away; then we realize

Travel Theme – Still
The beach is a fun place in the summer whether you are relaxing in the warm sun, cooling off in the water or enjoying all the fun activities from water sports to building sand castles. Whatever it is that takes you there, it is always a busy, exciting place to spend time, with all the

Travel Theme: Fragrant
I decided to try a new wine last night…a cheaper wine to be honest, from Chile, called Frontera. I bought the Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot blend and I have to say I really liked it. When I opened it, one of the first things I did was smell the aroma and smiled to myself as I realized

Travel Theme – Stone
I took the original photograph of these stone ruins of an old Tin mine in Cornwall, when I was there in the summer. I can’t believe that they have mined Tin, plus other metals, in Devon and Cornwall since the Bronze Age with the last mine, South Crofty, being closed in 1998. The Tin mines

Travel Theme (Through)
While traveling around the English countryside this summer I took this photo of the trees creating a ‘porthole’ in the road. While we couldn’t see around the corner, we could get a glimpse of what was ahead, through the trees. I do realize this looks more like a path than a road, but there are many

Travel Theme (Hidden)
Ailsa’s theme this week was about being hidden, which made me think of this quote by Buddha. The truth can never be hidden for long, it will always reveal itself at some point in time. It might not always be easy to be truthful or face the truth, but it has to be a lot
