  • Bird Houses

    The insides of my (Adam’s) bird houses… The box on the right has some fly fishing lures I got from Kezia.  The one on the left features some little pigs Regan gave me.  They’re drinking game pigs. I would have a hard time explaining the psychology in these, so I am not going to bother…

  • Bird House 2

    The second box.  They open in different directions because I was thinking it would be like wings. We have them hanging in our sun room.  I kinda want to varnish them and hang them outside in hopes birds will make homes out of them.  Adam voted against that, and I gave them to him, so…

  • Bird House 1

    There’s a lot going on here. I am from Vancouver Island, but I took a 1 year hiatus to go to Montreal.  It’s something I’d always wanted to do, travel by train across the country and learn some French.  Live and eat hot bagels and poutine in Montreal.  I lived in a tiny town called…

  • Wishes

    Birthdays, I wanted to make my best friend cry with glee.  Success! This is the first time I have mixed my 2 styles together, nutty little illustrations with photo images.  My friend Regan was at my forth birthday party here.  I had some old washed out photos to work from to make this painting for…

  • Rec Room

    ~Sold~, 21″ x 18″ If you bought this one, you’re awesome!  and could you put your hand up?  I was paid for it, but whomever sold it, forgot to write it down in ‘the book’ :) My mom’s sister Adeline and my awesome Aunt, here with her kids Shaney Boy, and maybe “Keena or Danielle. …

  • Contortionists

    ~Sold!~ Thanks Erin :) Octopus are amazing contortionists. Contortionists was the theme for Drawing Club, and this is what I came up with.  It’s a little painting, and in a different style from my other work on this site, but I have more like this to come.  The boots are gold leaf.  I love shoes…

  • Tuning Up

    ~Sold!~ Oh grandpa, I didn’t know you for too long, but my memories of you are very fond. My grandpa and music… double the LOVE!  I was so happy to find him tuning this little child sized guitar, I painted this twice. The first one I painted is similar, but from another photograph.  I had…

    Happy Birthday Frank Love! Frank can’t be with us to share his birthday.  He would be 70 today.  In this picture, he was 17, in Toronto Ontario Calgary Alberta (oops) when someone snapped this street shot.  I painted it up for Adam this Christmas. Adam (his son, my boyfriend), apparently adopted his pa’s style when…
