Pumpkin Art
A family Halloween tradition grew into a collection of backlit portraits for the neighbourhood.
Notes from the studio
Journal
The artwork, the process, and the stories along the way.
Memoriam
Portraits that keep loved ones near, and the moments that taught me how much a painting can mean.
Life Drawing
What life drawing taught me about observation, letting go, and stepping outside my comfort zone.
Still Life
I thought still life would be boring. Boy, was I wrong!
Island Dancer
The energy and colour of a festival performance, held for a moment in oil on canvas.
Impressionists
Exploring light and colour through studies of the painters whose work makes me happy.
First Skate
Auston finding his feet on the ice became a painting about family, childhood, and the bay.
Rainy Street
My first painting became a thank-you to my mother and the start of a much-loved hobby.
Santa Claus Cards
How one Santa painting for family cards became a Christmas tradition.
Bell the Beaver
A rescued neighbourhood beaver inspired a painting and a way to support wildlife.
Chris' Artistic Spark
“You can’t teach me. I’m too old to learn!” The challenge that started my painting journey.
Weber Brothers
A musical evening at Signal Brewery became a painting with an unexpected journey of its own.
