This series of paintings were produced over the last year at Vargas Island off the west coast of Vancouver Island. The striking feature is the quality of light Fletcher captures in these oil paintings. She works from life, each day going back to the same spot when the light is the same and strives to capture that light.

"I paint for a love of colour. I am fascinated by the immense range and the variation possible. Painting for me is like composing musical pieces upon canvas in a complex tapestry of notes. " Josephine Fletcher
