Today is sunny and is full of surprises. With my new birthday gift, I am one step closer to being a happy technophile.
Evidence of my happiness is a gift of my first Ipad. The IPad is from my dear computer literate Vic and the glorious spring flowers from a close friend who is far away in the frozen tundra of northern Alberta. Flowers and IPads do make a February birthday interesting and cheerful.
I look forward to learning how to use my new toy. I have downloaded a few drawing and painting apps which will be perfect for sketching. I have even downloaded a game of golf which is a bit difficult like real life golf. Below is my painting of the Fifth Tee at the Victoria Golf Club. We are fortunate to golf year round here in Victoria. My painting is very peaceful scene of a golfer on the Fifth Tee with the mountains and ocean as a gorgeous backdrop.
Colour = Happiness
Here are links to Tom Hawthorn's Globe and Mail article about how I love to express colour in my paintings even when Victoria's winter skies are grey.

I love to golf and had over the years golfed several times at the Victoria Golf Club with our friends and members Paul and Iris. I love the view that the Fifth tee and Fourth fairway offers of Trial Island and the magestic Olympic Mountains range. Several fairways of the Victoria Golf Club's course borders the ocean and both sides of Victoria's scenic Beach Drive. If you are in town visiting, please take the scenic drive and you will see this iconic view of the mountains, The Fifth Tee and Trial Island.
