'History-Then & Now' SOLD
Last year. I challenged myself to create 150 pictures of different sizes in celebration of Canada's 150th anniversary. I placed a Canadian symbol in each work in the series. Some pieces are still available in my studio.

I am proud to be a participating artist in the 2015 tour. Come visit my studio and view new work. Find me on the printable tour map.
"Beauty is everywhere - in the grand view and in the detail. Consider a glorious sunset at twilight, the sparkle and movement of a waterfall, the velvet texture of a flower petal. When we take time to look at what lies around us, we each begin to appreciate with an artist's eye."

I am proud to share purchased examples of my recent work. I create works in many sizes, and I complete commissioned pieces from photographs. The images here are uniform in size for display on the web.
My passions and concerns often come out in my art. An example is this picture.
Picture titled 'VOTE - Do You Exercise Your Franchise?'
If everyone said, “My vote won’t change a thing,” then there would be 0 percent voter turnout … no purpose for an election. In 1867, between August 7 and September 20, an impressive 73 percent of the citizens voted to ratify the beginning of Canada. Can you imagine how difficult it was to get to the polling station in those days?
The highest voting turnout ever recorded was 79 percent in three elections between the late 1950s and early 1960s. The lowest was in 2008 when only 58.8 percent voted. Why?
Your vote counts, as does mine. With each election we have the opportunity to demonstrate the care we hold for our Canada “True North Strong and Free”.
