A new electric forest . Really enjoying the layered textures to create depth . So much chaos, so much peace . A moment to breathe.
36x48” smells like wet paint

I use little pieces to play and work out ideas . Each of these 6x6 inch piece has been generated from the tremendous landscape and light out here on Georgian bay.
All of these pieces are available. They are $185.00 a piece which includes a 10% donation to a charity and tax . Ask me to send you a photo of an individual piece if you’d like. The charity’s this month will be a LGBTQ one for pride month .
Two new Electric Forest pieces among the peonies in my studio . I keep returning to forest interiors, there’s something about creating images that extend the imagination beyond the borders of the canvas . They are 30x60” each .

I’ve been thinking a lot about life lately and I think it really is about appreciating the simple moments. So I’ve got a couple of goals .
1: Document some of the simple things that give me joy . 2: do another studio tour … hopefully weekly. (Got swamped/overwhelmed… it happens)
these two pieces are attempting to capture some of the crazy light that happens here I love it and how changeable it it. I walked to and from the inner harbour 4 times yesterday in minutes because I’d look at it and be walking back home and catch the sky refuted in windows and head back . Just fabulous! The square is 24 inches , the rectangle is 16x30.
Currently in a battle with the bunnies. They look cute but they have voracious appetites. They’ll try to eat anything. Forget that they don’t like it and try it again!! Be off darn varmits!
They have no appreciation for art. I’m trying to grow stuff for painting and eating. Sharing is caring 🐰 you hear me ?!?
This 36x36” piece called ‘animation #5’ was painted in my former studio with things I grew here. Looking forward to seeing what I create here this summer. 💕
A small studio tour documenting this moment in time. At this moment, I’m quite excited by the inner harbour here in Owen sound . That’s what they call the base of Owen Sound where they moor the Chi-Cheemaun ferry overwinter.
As you can see , I’ve been playing with colour and palate. Exciting to see what develops . Ranges in size from 6 inches to 4 feet square . Other sizes coming probably…. Unless another bee hits my bonnet .
Interested in having a weekly tour?
Been playing with reflections . Lots to reflect upon. It’s been just over a year since I made my big move from Toronto to Owen sound.
The pink one is 8x8” the other one is 16x16” bigger ones are coming! How big, I’m not certain.
Truthfully, I don’t feel like I’ve had much time for reflection . Building the new studio and struggling to find the rhythms of life here. I’ll post more about the changes that have occurred here over the past year soon .

State of the studio . I’ve been working up this new body of work. Based on adventures hither and yon. These 4 are all 30 inches high. Other dimensions coming .
It’s interesting the way each previous piece informs the next. Sometimes the shifts are gradual but over the course of a dedicated art practice. The swings get big .
If you’re in the area , or looking for an adventure, come visit.

Installation day. It was so fun working on this project. I was given a size and they told me they liked orange and wanted a landscape with trees and water and then let me have at it. It’s also a real treat to see where a piece lands ❤️. 48x72”

Opening today @dervilia_art_design , IN FULL BLOOM . It’s all about flowers (and colour).
I feel the need for some colour these days. That seems to be my response to a feeling of things being out of control in a world that’s nutty. Bring on the colour!! #color #colour #canadianart #contemporarypainting #stilllife #kunst #artgallery #artcollector #artcurator #interiordesign #hope #cheer #originalart #abstractlandscape #forestpainting #landscapepainting #yellow #orange

Playing around with fractured light , trying to capture some of the otherworldly skies around here. It’s very dark but very hopeful. Like the dawn of something brimming with possibility . It’s very new , 16x18 “ still untitled as of yet .
If you’ve got ideas for a title please send them along .

Last week to check out my ‘hidden in plain sight’ exhibition @oconnorgallery .
Love the show , love this piece. The creation of this piece as with many of my still life’s is something that happens in a very intense period of time. They are temporal things , still life’s. Petals drop , some things perk up , somethings fade. Trying to capture it all before it’s gone sometimes makes for very late nights. ❤️
