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).

Tour of the Arts and Swept Up in It All

"Swept Up in it All"
24"x48"
Acrylic on Canvas
SOLD

This Canadian Thanksgiving weekend (Oct 8-10) marks the beginning of another local studio and gallery tour of my region.  Tour of the Arts, in Thornbury, Clarksburg and Kimberley, Ontario opens artists studios (and galleries) to the public, with a chance to see behind the scenes artist activity!  As always I will be located at the Loft Gallery in Clarksburg, giving painting demonstrations each day of the weekend from 11am - 5pm, along with Debra Lynn Carroll and Laurie DeCamillis.  I also have a number of new fall works hanging in the gallery.  Hope to see you there!
