Standing in the spray

I was inspired by the beauty of the heron. On the West Coast of Canada, I have a lot of opportunity to view them year round as they pop on and off the rocks along the seashore near my home. Painted in teals and greys with transparent layers on collage. I incorporated acrylic inks into the mix and one can almost imagine the spray of the sea in the background, hitting the rocks, while he searches patiently waiting for his next meal. It would make a great addition to your home or office. Painted in 2024.

War in the Heavens

This painting has six eagles at war with each other. I reworked this painting, searching for where it wanted to go…interestingly the number six represents both man and rebellion. In Native American culture, the eagle is a sacred bird, believed to carry prayers to the Great Spirit in the Spirit World. Swirls are often associated with transformation, resembling the flow of air or water. It would make a wonderful addition to your home. Painted in 2024.

Nucleus of creation

This painting speaks about the creation of the world as a tiny seed manifests itself into a great tree. As I reworked this painting I was seeking to find balance in the colors. The grey toned blues give it a feeling of peace and tranquility, while the spark of red sienna breathes life into the subject. Darker blues are representational of practices such as meditation or prayer to promote a deeper connection with one’s inner self. It would make a wonderful addition to your home. Painted in 2024.

Looking Inward

This piece took many months to complete as I was guided by intuition, watching it unfold and come into being.

Waiting in the midst of a storm SOLD

This painting came together during a period of great transition in my life. Waiting, can be the hardest thing to do sometimes. Can you see the bird that organically was formed in the right hand side under the crashing wave? The blues are symbolic of the waves that threaten to take over our lives and drown in the mucky mire of life. The oranges bring in a nice glow and balance out the painting with a very complimentary contrast. It would make a great addition to your home and add a spark of lively color. Painted in 2024.

Hummingbird in flight

This painting was reworked until I finally found the subject staring me in the face😊 Underneath the layers a hummingbird began to emerge, and I could just see it zooming all around the forest. Linework with ink pens intensified the effects while pops of teal and gold with a muted magenta background make for a peaceful and interesting effect. Covered in a gloss finish it sings across the room. It would make a great addition to your home or office. Painted in 2023.

Heron in my dreams

I was inspired by the beauty of the heron. On the West Coast of Canada, I have a lot of opportunity to view them year round as they pop on and off the rocks along the seashore near my home. Painted in Prussian blue, teal, burnt sienna with transparent layers on collage. I incorporated acrylic inks into the mix and one can almost imagine the swirling of the sea in the background as I played with different mediums to give a watercolor effect.

Beautiful woman

I was inspired by the beauty of the female form as I was doing a lot of people and portrait drawing at the time using photos for inspiration. This painting has a lot of texture in the hair and bodice. It is the essence of beauty and mystery. Crimson, yellow ochre, paynes grey and white blend together to find a sense of harmony, and along the edges of the bodice you will see a transparent grey streak invoking movement as she walks away (or toward?) you. Full of passion, covered in a gloss finish it would make a great addition to your home or office. Painted in 2015.

The Great Divide

This painting is made up of three panels each measuring 24 x 24 inches. The painting “connects” as the colors and shapes move across the stage. The soft color teal on top provides a focal point into the eternal. This painting asks one to consider enlightenment, God, the universe and the beginning and end of all creation. Like all color and shape there is an alternative message in the canvas if you look beyond the obvious. The square provides a sense of order, balance, and groundedness in our physical world. Its spiritual meaning encompasses themes such as stability, protection, and the union of opposites like heaven and earth or the material and the spiritual realms.
It would make a great addition to your home or office. Painted in 2023.

Size: 24 x 72 canvas (made up of three 24x24 panels)

Mystic Raven

This painting was featured in the book "Not an Island" Fall 2024 edition. I was inspired by the beauty of the raven. On the West Coast of Canada, I have a lot of opportunity to view them year round and they are a very interesting bird. In Native American traditions, ravens represent the creation of the world and good luck. Painted in Prussian blue with transparent layers and bursts of orange and quinacridone gold one can almost imagine the swirling of the universe coming into being.

Moving through space and time

This painting was reworked in 2024. I used phalo green with splashes of yellow ochre along the timeline. The inspiration behind this would be all the photos taken from deep space on the hubble telescope. This painting depicts moving from one realm to the next and in the top left-hand corner, when the light is just right, you can see a wolf’s face within the collage. The wolf is seen as a symbol of guardianship, signifying a person’s journey to self-discovery or overcoming personal obstacles. The rough and imperfect coat of epoxy is symbolic of the meteorites, movement and imperfectness of life. Painted in 2023. Reworked in 2024.

Undersea beauty _16 x 20.jpg

I was inspired by the beauty of the sea. I used to do a lot of diving along the coral reefs, where the sea fans would gently rock on the movement of the currents under water. I could spend countless hours staring out into the great “nothingness’ on the edge of the reef. Created using magenta, and golds over a cool underpainting of blue there appears to be a depth as one feels the magic of the sea pull you in as you glide across the bottom of the ocean into the abyss. It would make a great addition to your home or office. Painted in 2023.

Caught in the current SOLD

This painting was reworked in 2024. I added a lot of texture in places to this canvas to give it more interest. The blues invoke a sense of calm, while the oranges bring in a bit of life. The six birds are caught in the current “of life” while holding onto the earth. The earth, is shaped like an onion, revealing the never ending layers (lessons) that we must go through before surrendering to the end. It would make a lovely addition to your home.

Hidden Faces

This will provide endless conversation as you look for all the faces that came into being. There are seven faces inside this painting, can you see them? These represent the many faces we put on as we walk through life, it speaks about the cultural and ancestral beliefs that live on in us, and after us as we move through life. Magenta is associated with spiritual transformation, enlightenment, and higher consciousness. It is often seen as a color that signifies the divine or the sacred.
It would make a great addition to your home or office. Painted in 2023.

Spirit man

Returning to the earth, my homeland. This painting speaks about the full circle of life. The mountain (face) on the right looks to the heavens, while the body (left) departs this place into the eternal. It speaks of peace and joy. I used prussian blue, burnt sienna and yellow oche.
