Stones and barnacles.


A watercolor depicting stones and barnacles trapped in a small tide pool. This image is called 'Castaways' and is available in several print formats, a better view of the print can be seen here http://www.fullcirclestudio.ca/linda/lindaheslopprints.html.

Snolar Bear.


For the first time since 1971 Canada is blanketed with snow from coast to coast to coast (yes, Canada has three coasts). Fortunately for us Victoria typically missed the worst of it, though we did get unusually cold temperatures and snow is still in the forecast for tomorrow and Christmas Day. Anyway, with typical Linda Heslop creativity, we now have a 'Snolar Bear' on our front lawn!

Dock Stars.


A watercolor image called "Dock Stars" showing an abundance of sea stars and anemones, along with the ever present barnacles, awaiting the tides return. A common scene around the pilings of the Vancouver Island docks and jetties.

Show time!

 
Linda Heslop is having a show at Full Circle Studio starting  December 11th and these are some of the new original works that will be on display there. Only the bottom  seascape is an oil painting on canvas, the stones/pebbles and the starfish images being watercolor paintings done on  canvas. She's been extremely busy preparing new originals for the show and there are many more fresh works to be displayed there.
