Oct. 3 – Lines in Stained Glass

….thanks to Becky B for hosting October Squares

Last weekend the Historic Museums of Toronto hosted the Big Draw. Each museum featured numerous art activities to involve the community. At Montgomery’s Inn one of the activities was painting the windows in the gallery and meeting room. When done it looked like a giant stained glass mural. Here is part of it.

Artsy Lines

…thanks to Becky of The Life of B for hosting this month’s Lines in Squares

This square comes from the Big Draw that was held on the weekend here in Toronto. The square was created from chalk pastels and was drawn on the wall next to Montgomery’s Inn.

A Three Day Blow

….it wasn’t windy but you wouldn’t have known it from the waves that hit the shoreline

Up at the cottage when the waves come in off of Georgian Bay they usually last three days. We’ve always called it ‘a three day blow’. This week we seemed to be experiencing the same thing here on Lake Ontario. There was very little wind but the lake was rolling in like we were in the middle of a storm. The first set of shots were taken in the evening two nights ago and the following were taken the next day during the day.
