Kitsilano in the snow #2

Inspired by a magical morning on Kitsilano Beach after the snowfall before Xmas, which I posted about in backdrop to a life: part 2 and which was also the inspiration for the first of the year.

The Gift of the Four Treasures has once again weaved its magic spell with the superpower that resides in its brushes and ink.

Looks like the beginning of a new series for a new year.

For this week’s Photo Challenge: New Horizon Krista asks us to “think ahead and show your work in a representative photo”.  Since I have just received my 2017 calendar this week, which I had printed by Apple, it seemed the perfect way to respond to Krista’s challenge revisiting some of my paintings from 2016 as I look forward to the year ahead.
