Some Stones

A Linda Heslop watercolor painting of pebbles and rocks including granite and porphyry (flowerstone) collected locally on Vancouver Island.

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.

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.

Knowledge cast in stone.

 

This image of a Japanese concrete casting is called 'Knowledge', the exact meaning of the inscription apparently does not translate well into English but roughly says something along the line of We already have everything. If anyone can shed better light on the translation please make a comment.

Linda Heslop painted this in acrylic on canvas several years ago, a similar watercolor but with the casting set on a background of stones and pebbles had been painted prior to this. The casting resides in our garden.

Just a few stones!

This watercolor by artist Linda Heslop is called 'Abundance'. Easy to see why eh? There's pebbles, stones and small rocks all depicted in photo-realistic fashion. Count 'em if you can ;-)

Shells 'n Stones.

Shells and stones, still life watercolors from photographs taken at various beaches are another of Lindas' favorite subjects.
