Dusk at Amphitrite Point by Teresa Knight
16.75″x15.75″ Acrylic on board, framed.
$400
The view from the Lighthouse at Amphitrite Point, Ucluelet looking south-west. The lighthouse loop af the Wild Pacific Trail, is one of the most remarkable spots on the entire west coast of Vancouver Island. Aside from the immediate beauty of the Peninsula itself; George Fraser and Crow Island, Jenny Reef. The views peek into the Broken Group Islands in Barkley Sound. On clear days you can see the mountain peaks of the Olympic Mountain Range, but one of the best parts is as pictured here… the stark contrast of the Open Pacific.
Ladybug, Ladybug by Marla Thirsk (Marion Series #1)

Nostalgic family photos are referenced for the figures but each painting tells a story, …the pigeons are remarkable, but Marion’s tear filled eyes and the doll elude to a less than sweet memory… unlike the cheerful birds in the wallpaper.

Telephone Call by Marla Thirsk

Remember telephones? rotary dialed with a handset leashed to the base. These days everyone seems to be sporting a portable pocket computer/ GPS enabled cell phone with a touch screen, but either way, we’re still waiting for the phone to ring.

I think this is Marla’s most compelling series to date. It shows a new level of detail and introspection for this well known local artist. The Bathing Beauty Series has been well received, their first appearance being at P.R.A.S Wave Art Show in Tofino. Marla is currently hard at work in the studio following up on this exciting series, based on 40’s retro photos.

Teresa has been using, to great effect, wood paneling’s grain as an integral part of her paintings. She’s using washes of acrylic and embellishing it occasionally with oil based glazes. The results of her efforts are gorgeous paintings filled with subtleties.
