Day 5 in My Art Journey
…while waiting for the laundry to be done I did find some inspiration to work in my journal
I’ve always loved drawing florals so I picked up my Micron pen and started to draw over the collage I had glued down last night.
Last Day at the Cottage
…after 6 wonderful days with Andrea and Olive
This is the first time in many years that I’ve experienced this much snow. Our cottage on Christian Island ( a mere 10 minutes from here to the ferry dock) is not winterized and the road up the north shore is not ploughed regularly, if at all.
While Andrea logs onto work today, I’ll be doing laundry and packing to go home. Once that is done I may do some more art or continue reading my book, Doppelgänger. Yesterday I prepped a couple of pages in my art journal and I might continue with one or both pages if I’m inspired.
Hopefully we’ll find some time after lunch to go for another walk. It’s considerably warmer today and it has finally stopped snowing.

A Winter Walk
…more snow
Since Sunday the snow has come down every day. There’s a good 12 inches (25 to 30 cm) on the ground and it just keeps coming. Andrea and I were going to go for a drive but thought better of it when we checked the forecast.
Olive loves the snow. The worst part for her and probably for her humans is getting dressed to go out.
Once outside you can see from the snow on the railings how much more snow had fallen.

Trees in Black and White
…day three in my art journey
After a relaxing day at the outdoor spa in Collingwood we drove back to the cottage and I pulled out my sketchbook to bc start my third piece of art. This one was more detailed and took some time but I’m loving the process.
