Sadie’s Announcement
13 September, 2015
Custom Wedding Invite Such a good idea! It was Rhiannon who chose to have her daughter announce their wedding to friends and family. Very clever, and so making this was a lot of fun. Rhiannon asked I include her daughter Sadie’s little blanket bunny, RaRa, but with a real bunny body. Sadie’s nickname is Sadie […]

Party On, ~ 24″ x 38″ SOLD Chris Purdy in the background, my mom in the foreground in blue with a pixie cut. I have always loved this photo of the girls getting their party-on. The slide is overexposed and a bit blurry, the colours are so fun and appealing. Happy to have finally painted it. […]

Canoediana
20 January, 2013
“Canoediana” – Commission, ~18″ x 24″ What an infectious smile!? Christine’s grandma is pictured here relaxing afloat a canoe. When she commissioned this piece, Christine gave me free reign to add colour if I wanted too. I contemplated making the shirt red, but opted out in the end as you can see. I […]

Young Rider Last year I had this sweet commission from Angela. Her daughter had seen my art at the moss street paint in, and put me on her wish list! So nice someone so young would request art for Christmas! It was a tricky one to paint, because of the profile and angle of […]
