Below is a graphite drawing I completed in 1988 and found while going through my junque. The fancy glasses were in style at that time. Below that, is an oil painting, that I found with it, completed by Aggie in 1992. Aggie’s paintings can be seen in Aggie’s Gallery.
This morning while I was looking for some of Aggie’s sketches that I had set aside a couple of months ago, and couldn’t find today . . . I ran across these thoughts hand written by Aggie on a piece of paper. I posted these thoughts in “Aggies Gallery” and they can be seen here.
There now is a photo of another pastel painting by Aggie in the “Aggie’s Gallery” portion of my website. I named it “Aggie’s Scene” because all her paintings were untitled. In my opinion I think it is Aggie’s finest painting. You can see it here.
Less than a year before Aggie got cancer, she was introduced to clay by her good friend in Tagish, Jan Wotton. Aggie loved it . . . but she only had time to do 5 clay projects before she died in December of 2005. One of her clay projects is shown below, the rest can be seen here.
It is still very cold at -42 C (-44 F) so I decided to write another story for Aggie’s Gallery on my website. You can read it here, but you might want some tissue with you.
Now I have to go outside and split some more wood for the stove. It’s cold outside but wood splits easily when it’s this cold.
It’s still too cold and dark to paint. Here is another story that I wrote and placed in Aggie’s Gallery today, about her first year at the Aklavik Anglican Residential School.
It’s still minus 40 degrees outside . . . so here is another story from Aggie. You can read it here.
The temperature this morning was -40 degress and it looks like it will be even colder tonight. What better time than this to sit in a warm room and write a story; one of many related to me by my late wonderful wife of 39 years. I started a new section in my website for her stories. You can see the first one here.
I’m taking a break from my painting today to put another of Aggie’s pastels in “Aggie’s Gallery”. You can see it here.
Aggie’s pastel painting “Mountain Lake” is now in Aggie’s Gallery. You can see it here.
