“Waubaushene”, 10×8, acrylic on canvas © 2009 Michelle Basic Hendry
One crisp November day, I went to Waubaushene on Georgian Bay and took a walk down the pier. The rocks sat in the still water in the light of the late Autumn sun.
Now, the snow has finally arrived. I realize that I was looking forward to the quiet it brings with it.

/ December 21, 2009I enjoyed this very much. There’s a somber beauty to it. I love the little rocks on the top that appear to have broken free and and are flying away.
