Porsche #9: I was developing a new portrait simply called Cap-girl, when an art patron, who had previously purchased a couple of my stone sculptures, visited my studio. A long time Porsche owner and racing fan, he said he would like to buy it, and asked if I would put the name Porsche on the cap along with his lucky number; # 9. So, in an instant, baseball-cap-girl, became Porsche #9 ―a private commission.

Majestic: This magnificent animal, indigenous to northern Alberta, Canada, is a Dall Sheep. I imagined it leaping to the next ledge. It was a challenge to capture the ram’s power and majesty. The startling contrast of the chamois horns, silver-white body coat and black muzzle, eyes, and hoofs, are so uniquely Dall. The larger indentations in its trophy sized horn curls count out the number of years it has survived in the wilderness. Majestic is at his prime―in his eighth year on the mountain.
Beads, Textiles & Waves of Colour in Intricate Patterns of Orange, Purple & Pale Yellow. Feels Like Colourful Confusion, But Works Together in Total Harmony.
Organic curving forms swirl around a peach background with rippling colours that create a form that seems to move back into the painting. Gives a dynamic feeling of serenity.
An acrylic abstraction of nature's growth on old forest trees. Reverence for nature combines with a primal harmony in orange & purple waves of colour.
A kneeling woman sits amid an abstracted field of beads and feathered light waves of pink, purple and blues. The wind lifts her hair, and she is enjoying the freedom of dynamic airflow as it wafts past her. This acrylic painting dominated by pointillistic abstraction flows with a calm and beatific aura.
A triptych that rolls down to the right at a 45-degree angle, it feels like a pale blue waterfall of light that creates a path for the Indigenous pow wow dancers to progress towards the shaman at the bottom.
Abstracted field of flowers and plants in an alien landscape, predominantly purple tones with orange and yellow complements. The atmosphere is an alien sunrise, a field of beauty and promise.
