“Lilies of Odori” was inspired by the beautiful water lily pond we photographed on a rainy visit to Odori Park in downtown Sapporo, Japan. Odori Park divides north and south Sapporo and is home to several annual festivals such as the Snow Festival and a spring lilac show.

This painting is available to purchase through the Federation of Canadian Artists website (link to follow) from March 15-28.

In February, I taught an introduction to oil painting class. I really enjoy seeing students developing a joy of painting. That’s more important than producing artwork, tbh. We need joy in our tasks, especially these days. This canola field was our final project. I just finished mine yesterday. Enjoy. And wash your hands to #FlattenTheCurve.

It’s the time of year that canola fields take centre stage.For hundreds of miles in all directions these are the gorgeous colours that Alberta and Saskatchewan wear in July. The photo reference for this piece was taken just north of Marwayne by a family member. It’s a glorious view!

I did this small painting in oils which I am loving right now! The creaminess, the blending, the color intensity... so satisfying. Enjoy!

This painting was completed in one sitting with just a palette knife. I love those chunks of colour... oil paint is awesome for its ability to maintain texture. I’ve been in a bit of a painting block lately and doing a “just for fun” project like this reminds me of why I paint! Happy Summer!

We’ve a lovely garden in the middle of Bud Miller All Seasons Park nearby. Last year these yummy yellow flowers stole the show for me. I look forward to seeing them again soon! I took this painting, and several others, to The Collective Art Market today so they are available. Lots of paintings available in the $140-250 range. Do drop by and support TCAM in downtown Lloydminster!

The landscape anchors of the prairie are the clouds... in all their shape shifting and colour changing glory!  I have  always been a cloud watcher.  I think it comes from my farm girl roots.  I hope you enjoy them too!

Arts Without Borders 2018

Today was the last day to enter our AWOB juried art show. It was a busy day 🙄. I used to work best under pressure but I’m going to have to rethink that strategy. The last item finished was my 8x10 monoprint of a Brewer’s blackbird which I called “My True Colours”. Shown second, “Gems of Kejimikujik” is an 18x24 oil painting, and my “Fierce” owl is an 11x14 acrylic. Friend and jewelry artist Kathy Dumouchel and I collaborated on the last image, a 16x20 3D work called “Autumn Fields” featuring copper cast wheat made by Kathy (so beautiful) mounted onto a barnwood oval with a painting and copper harvest moon in the background - so much fun!
