  1. New off of my easel and suitable view for #SilentSunday

    “Springwater in Morning Fog” by Terrill Welch, 20 x 36 inch walnut oil on canvas.

    More information is available in our online gallery at: artworkarchive.com/profile/ter

    Artist notes: The November morning holds promise as the fog drifts low on Active Pass and swirls below a bright blue sky punctuated by wispy clouds in Miners Bay. The Springwater Lodge flanks the shore with aging superiority. I pause and wait, for something, anything really, to break the spell.

    Please note that our physical gallery pod is still closed for a while longer due to site renovations. If this painting is still an available, it will be in the first show when the space is reopens again, likely in early October.

  2. Today’s work done!…. in light that changed a thousand times…

    “Trees and Shore at Oyster Bay” by Terrill Welch, 8 x 10 inch acrylic on gessobord plein air.

    Artist Notes: It is midday at the end of June. There is a breeze in Oyster Bay on Mayne Island and quickly changing filtered light that make for ideal plein air painting conditions. I take it! Knowing where the sun will be in an hour and that the tide is on its way in helps to brush this fresh view lightly into place.

  3. I am celebrating the first day of Spring this year with on of my cherry blossom paintings. Though the Mayne Island Japanese Memorial Garden season of sakura is about a month away and the first plum blossoms are just starting to open, I want us all to be ready for this seasonal spring event with a special story about plein air painting shared in the alt notes of the painting image. Happy Spring 2023!

    Cherry Blossoms Mayne Island Japanese Garden by Terrill Welch, oil on canvas, 20 x 24 inches.

    More information and available at: artworkarchive.com/profile/ter

    Artist notes: Clouds of pink blossoms fill the morning sky with petals drifting slowly onto the garden paths. It is Cherry blossom season in Mayne Island’s Japanese Garden. The season of sakura is here! Want to go hanami?

  4. After a morning painting in the studio, I went down to the shores of the Salish Sea on Mayne Island for a bit. Mount Baker was catching the last of the afternoon sun. A large first year Glaucous-winged Gull sat atop a sandstone rock while Surfbirds foraged at the water’s edge. A beautiful break in the weather making one more glad than usual to be alive.

  5. This morning took us to Oyster Bay where the seals had moved in close to shore with the winter high tides. An eagle swooped in to land on a sandstone islet at one point. Then the sun came out. I never did make it into the art studio to work on a painting that is midway complete. 😉

  6. Nature delivers abstract forms and designs as I gather references from an old driftwoods stump washed loose during winter high tides.

  7. Down by the water in Oyster Bay on Mayne Island the mood was quiet and brooding. There is a wind warning in effect. A fairly common occurrence this time of year. Still beauty to be witnessed.

    And on that note, the power just went out. 😂

  8. A few snippets from yesterday’s hike in Saint John Point Park on Mayne Island. The day wasn’t very promising and I almost didn’t go but once on the trails it was pleasant enough in pungent earthy dampness with traces of wood smoke coming from nearby homes keeping their inhabitants cozy and dry. The alt descriptions offer a little more if you care to read them.

  10. Fog Lifting at the Springwater Lodge by Terrill Welch, walnut oil on linen board,
    11 x 14 inches.

    In Private Collection

    Artist notes: The heavy November morning fog in Active Pass starts to lift, revealing and concealing with equal amounts of effectiveness.
