Hello! I’m a Canadian fine arts painter who celebrates our connection with nature.
I believe that idyllic images are snapshots in time that remind us to enjoy the beauty that nature presents.

🎉🎉🎉 I’ve been meaning to tell you that I sold “Three Sisters” during the Earth, Sky & Sea show - woo hoo!!
Always fun to get the back story on new collectors: a daughter bought this piece as a birthday gift for her mom Debbie in Penticton, BC.
Debbie then sent me the nicest note saying this painting “was meant to be” for her as she has two sisters, and has often told a folklore story about three sisters who are trees - that’s pretty special!
And I’d say her daughter wins a prize for best birthday present ever!
I wish Debbie many, many years of enjoying this meaningful painting.

🎨🍁🎨 One of the joys of living in a smaller community is the wonderful support of many organizations who want to proudly display the work of local artists!
Appropriate for the fall exhibition @brighton__public__library is my painting “Autumn Comes Early in Yellowknife” - capturing the beautiful golden trees against the huge rocks and rushing stream. That was an amazing trip.
Thanks to @brightonartsandculture for brokering this relationship between artists and the community. Public libraries are amazing - they provide so many essential services for people of all ages.

🎉🎉🎉 “Moody Blues at Buckhorn” has sold!!
Thank you to my new collector who saw this painting at a previous show, considered it and then contacted me through my website (see link in my profile).
And what’s even nicer is that she’s giving it as a gift to her daughter in Australia as a lovely reminder of home 😀.

🎨🐦⬛🎨 “This is My Good Side” captures one of my favourite birds!
This 8”x8” acrylic on canvas painting will be featured along with many other pieces @themakershand in Wellington, Ontario from Nov 8-10.
Super excited to take part in this event for the first time, and it’s very special as it’s the 20th anniversary of the show!
Stay tuned as I post more new work for this show…

🎨🐦⬛🎨 Work in progress on my easel… hello Mr. Blue Jay!
I love painting the face first as it helps me to instantly bring the bird to life. When I see their faces, I feel a connection with these beautiful creatures.

🎨🎉🎨 My first eastern Ontario gallery show! So pleased to have two larger paintings juried into the Perspectives show from the Belleville Art Association - “Ripple” and “Soft Tamarindo Sunset”.
I recently joined the BAA and looking forward to participating in many events.
If you live in the Belleville area, come check out the show at the John M. Parrott Art Gallery, filled with a rich variety of works from so many talented artists.
Congratulations to all the prize winners - very much deserved!
I’ve included a few pics of pieces I particularly enjoyed.

🎨🌳🎨 Here’s the creative journey of “Three Sisters” for @squarefootshow, happening 2 short days from now - woo hoo!
You’ll see in the pics that my palette sheet gets a whole lot messier as the painting progresses 😂.
And then I add the trees using the delightful Faber-Castell Pitt Artist Pen Brushes, which are not messy at all 😀.

🎨🌞🎨 Have a look at the journey of “Come Closer”, one of my new works for @squarefootshow happening in 12 days!
I have to sit with a finished painting for a few days to let the title emerge. With this scene, I felt like the shoreline trees were inviting me to “come closer” and spend time in their company. Have I told you how much I love trees? What would we do without them…
