Second watercolour in my professional career, done on cold press 300 lb rag Arche paper.
My work is a reflection of my fascination with the fragmented, grid-like patterns found in nature which I use to abstractly capture the essence of landscapes, horizons and the notion of journeys and migration. I draw inspiration from the colours, forms, and the rich textures found in “rewilded” landscapes then translate these elements into abstract compositions that evoke feelings of exploration and interconnectedness with nature. Available at the Petroff Gallery.

This painting is called Canola Fields: North Battleford and is based on some drawings and photos from a road trip through Saskatchewan a couple of years ago. On a whim I turned off the highway just west of North Battleford and followed a winding dirt road for a couple of kilometers....which ended at a four way intersection. For as far as the eye could see in all directions were brilliant yellow canola fields nestled into the gently rolling countryside.
For twenty years I regularly attended morning classes at Alberta Ballet to draw the dancers. Sunrise Studio A depicts the glorious early mornings when sunshine flowed through the studio windows and bathed the room in honey.
The Rising is based on my firm belief that our earliest instincts (aside from food, shelter and survival) include scratching images into the dirt and onto cave walls, pounding out rhythms on hollow logs and dancing around fires. Art, spiritualism and magic defined our earliest ancestors search for who we are and why we are here. Sadly, throughout our history, we have slowly assigned less and less importance to these primal instincts and, as a result, the world around us has become more grey and uncertain. The Rising is a painting about us and who we’ve always been -- emerging from ignorance to light. It's a painting about hope.
