Into the Wilds: Wonder
Acrylic on Gallery Canvas
36” x 60”
2026
Recent work has developed around a lovely summery afternoon walk in lake country with girlfriends. This new girl is a testament to time well spent at the paint wall playing with colour, relationships and composition. It’s a fictional place designed to inspire a sense of wonder and possibility and for me with a very tight timeline and nobody to please but myself I wondered if I could manage such a large space in a short time frame
Apparently I can. Hope you love her as much as I enjoyed creating her with my focus firmly honed on the creative process.

The poppy is a perennial player in my painting practice. This piece evolved out of a recent commission and will be one of two poppy paintings to potentially greet visitors at 38 Aldershot, Winnipeg in June 2026.
In the practice of Feng Shui, the colour red is said to inspire yang energy, attract abundance, provide protection and clear negative energy. A bouquet of painted poppies then make for a natural, low maintenance choice to invite guests into our personal spaces.
New Naturalism: Spa
Acrylic on Canvas
16” x 36”
2021/25
Framed @$1260 inclusive of taxes
I often paint in groups in a fun game of creative play where boundaries merge and expand and compositions multiply. New Naturalism began as a triptych, a three panelled painting that included 5 compositions.
The centre panel, “Union”, has sold but the remaining pair can act as a diptych as well as individual compositions.
Recently framed this narrow vertical shape compliments small spaces like bathrooms and reading nooks with a pop of colour and the addition of Red’s energetic invitation.

I work at solving visual equations on the paint wall in colour. Contrasts and compliments often feature in my landscape based work which I always consider to be play.
In our homes we aim to express ourselves with our choices and also to find a balance between action and rest, to procure the comfort we seek. The greens in this composition invoke the natural world to attract prosperity and positivity. Fresh flowers that require no weeding or watering for the ultimate in low maintenance gardening are always a comfort for thise of us who spend more than half the year with winters white underfoot.

INTO THE MIST
20” x 20”
Acrylic on Gallery Canvas, 2024
$775
This loose painterly sketch infers the Prairie in full bloom with minimal marks. A contrasting colour palette of Canola yellow and Flax blue is balanced by the warmth of quinocridone red, a hint of mint and some deep olive and bottle greens.
Created at the end of a painting period this little composition flows with a less verses more philosophy.
“Into the Mist” is currently welcoming visitors to our summer cottage after its partner, “The Majorca Cardigan” which earned its name from a daughter’s travel chenanigans while I was painting at the studio, went to her forever home with a lake neighbour.
Passage
Passage was created in response to a request for a 24” x 24” piece to partner in a group show. These blooms evolved on the paintwall in the depths of a Canadian winter set on the prairies. This garden can bllom year round no matter the weather.

@ $2700 inclusive of taxes
New work on the paint wall has been taking shape in delicious colours. Imagery is inspired by incidental greenspaces…you know those weeds along roadsides and down country lanes especially in lake country.
My work begins with an action a colour and a mark and I allow those initial marks to lead the way into a composition
Sweet Suite Series: Inland Ocean
Acrylic on Panel
11” x 14”, 2023
$380
I have always been drawn to colour and colour relationships. In much of my work I try to tease out a little reaction between contrasts. In this little piece i was attracted to the water and how the addition of a yellow to the the light blue violet of the water flattened out the surface to infer a breathless late summer afternoon.
