Wedding Bells
I am kinda cheating cause this painting is from a long time ago. I just realized it wasn’t on my old website. I made a few, all very large, black line drawings (with paint) on Canvas. I think they were about 4′ x 8′. I think I sold this to someone out of Rebel Rebel.…

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…

Love
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…

Stay Golden
I wanted to give my very special friends something very special for Christmas… man, giving art is risky business too, cause you never know if they are going to really like it. Pretty sure I got the gold though (I hope). Yes that is a golden horse, like the right idea on the right path,…

Rebel Horse
Commission for Claudia & Erin at Rebel Rebel. Well unfortunately, because this painting is 4′ x 7′, I found it very hard to get a picture of it, in focus. The image I was given to work with is from an art gallery in NY. I guess they weren’t supposed to take pictures of this…

She’s Out Back
For sale $275 at Wilde and Sparrow Awesome stubby beer bottle, stunning lady, great leggings. I wonder what they were talking about out there, that fresh summer evening, smoking and drinking… If these were my friends now, discussion would likely be the state of the world, group gossip & drama, or the wicked meal we…

Perfect Day
Sold and lives in Alberta now. I had planned to paint this image for a long time, so when this piece of wood came along I saw it fit my image perfectly. The waves of grain mimic water, the grey decay added to the falling shadows on that sunny day at the lake. For sure…

Dark Wedding
~Sold~ Yolaine’s lace dress is one of the most interesting and beautiful dresses I’ve seen. I flew to Montreal specially for her wedding to Olivier. I thought I’d be alone wearing black at a wedding, but it turned out quite the opposite occurred. The majority of us wore black, and that just made the bride…

Blue Eyes
~Sold~ I promised myself ‘NO MORE PORTRAITS’, then I painted this one. There’s no sense resisting. My friend Regan does have the most killer blue eyes. Even in black and white, I knew they would be piercing. But I thought the title could be interpreted as being ‘blue’ or feeling the blues, or ‘black &…
