36x48 - MacKinnion Bay - sometimes the story behind a painting is just as much fun as the painting itself. This one was delivered as a surprise gift to a client who wanted to ensure that her loved one would be totally surprised on the special day…the funny story is that when I was delivering the art work to her home her spouse came home unexpectedly and so I had to run out the back door, jump the fence, climb through piles of snow and sneak away before getting caught. Luckily, my trusty getaway driver @dominique_milne was was waiting around the corner for us to ensure we got away and the surprise we left intact. Love the adventure and the joy art can bring…#artasagift #artcommission #greatstories #canadianartist #ontarioartist https://www.instagram.com/p/CpIhbwYOF0V/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Armstrong’s Bosque Acrylic on canvas Size: 24x24 inches - For Sale - This acrylic painting captures the beauty of a peaceful and serene landscape, complete with a charming cottage nestled among the trees. The brushstrokes are loose and expressive, giving the piece an impressionistic feel that invites the viewer to get lost in the beauty of nature. The colors are bold and striking, with a warm golden glow that seems to radiate from within the painting. The cottage adds a sense of cozy familiarity to the scene, inviting the viewer to imagine themselves living in this idyllic setting. This piece was created as a commission, but unfortunately, the client did not pick it up. Now it is looking for a new home where it can bring a sense of tranquility and joy to its surroundings. If you are looking to add some color and beauty to your space, this one-of-a-kind piece is the perfect choice. Please reach out if your have any questions.

Libby’s Bay. 36x48 inches - This piece is the second creation of this boathouse. The first piece was damaged in transportation so I set out to recreate it in a bolder expression. This 100+ year old building sits at the too of Davis lock in Elgin Ontario and is said to be part of a group of building used as the planning office for the teams of men who built bottom half of the Rideau Canal ( Kingston side ). I love the character these old building hold and protect. #impressionism #landscapeart #impresionisticlandscapes #andrewdmilneart #canadianartist #onatrioartist (at Davis Lock, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CicYiJJgPpi/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Sketch week Day 5 - Sketching encourages exploration, understanding and deconstruction of your subject in ways like no other. #sketchbook #creativesketch #sketchbookdrawing #artist #canadianartist #ontarioartist #impressionism #riddeaucanal #andrewdmilneart #creativeprocess https://www.instagram.com/p/CiVF-zBg-Xk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Sketch Week: Sketching is free-flowing, rhythmic, and unbridled. It is easy to lose yourself in the moment and the creative process. #sketchbook #creativeprocess ##drawing #watercolor #enpleinair #andrewdmilneart #canadianartist #ontarioartist #landscapeartist #impressionism (at Ottawa, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CiSRvmsAF-w/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Sketch week: Cutting out the noise to find what is important is no easy task. It takes training, practice and patience. You can sometimes draw, paint sketch the same location 100 times and never see the same outcome. It is the artists eye for what they feel is interesting that brings the uniqueness to each new piece created. This is just as important as colour, technique, material and light. #sketchbook #sketchdaily #creativeprocess #canadianartist #ontarioartist #watercolor #penandwatercoloursketch #penandinkdrawing https://www.instagram.com/p/CiPliJ-gmOH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
