The Peaks
18"x36"
Acrylic on Canvas
SOLD
This is a commission that I recently completed of the Georgian Peaks. It is a lot of fun to paint snow for a change. The tough thing is to figure out how to warm up a painting that has all of those blues and greys. In this case, orange was the antidote!

Birches in the Snow
16"x16"
Acrylic on Canvas
SOLD
Well I am starting to paint a lot of snow, but sadly there is none on the ground here yet. We had a tease last week, but the rain wiped it out. With a household that is centred around skiing (including my husband's job), we are starting to get a little antsy. Bring on the snow!! In the mean time, I will get my fix on the canvas...

Winter's Bend
36"x48"
Acrylic on Canvas
SOLD
I just brought a number of new paintings, including this one to Moyaboya in Creemore. Senka's store is looking fabulous and very holiday inspired. If you are in the Creemore, Ontario area, drop by!
The snow is beginning to fall here, and I am excited in anticipation of winter. Bring on the white stuff...

Poetic Birches
12"x12"
Acrylic on Canvas
SOLD
This is one of the square footers that I chose to keep (well actually my son Max requested it). I took a series of photos at the top of Blue Mountain this fall, which had some great birch trees, set among the dark forest, and along with the last of the season's coloured leaves. I imagine these photos will be fodder for quite a few paintings.

Tangled Maples Study
12"x12"
Acrylic on Canvas
SOLD
As the biannual Square Foot Show approaches at the Loft Gallery (opens November 18th), I endeavour to paint a large number of these 12"x12" paintings. My favourite part (beside the freeing feeling that I can really "play" with this size canvas - versus painting a much larger one where I definitely tighten up), is lining up all finished pieces. It is like looking a a number of little "gems". Very satisfying! This was my first one painted for the show, but I just may have to keep it for myself...

Old Blady In Bloom
16"x16"
Acrylic on Canvas
SOLD
Fall is here and the colours are amazing. I had a great Art Tour weekend over Thanksgiving, and even got out plein air painting in the Beaver Valley on Friday with a friend. This is the painting I completed that day from the top of Beaver Valley Ski Club, looking out towards Old Baldy (part of the Niagara Escarpment).

This one was painted plein air in my back yard (is that cheating? - but the hot coffee and bathrooms were so close!).

Canola Fields
16"x16"
Acrylic on Canvas
SOLD
This is a study I created based on some amazing photos I took a few weeks ago when the canola fields were in full bloom. Canola always reminds me of Saskatchewan, where I grew up.
