I love butterflies, and am planting as many host plants for them as I can fit in my garden! I take photos of them for painting references; Black Swallowtails are flighty and difficult to get to stay still! Here is a 16x20" oil on canvas with a couple of beauties!

This 16x16" acrylic came about because I was thinking of tree branches and the use of the negative space between them. It looks like stained glass, and I love winter birds!
Every painting is like a puzzle that has to be solved. Palette knife and tiny beads brought my ocean to life. 24x 36" acrylic on gallery wrapped canvas, and my entry in this year's juried show at the Georgina Gallery. The theme is "All That I Love". I love being by the ocean! The photo references I used were from pictures I took in Ireland and Scotland- two places that I loved visiting. |
Author I have always been an artist. I studied art at Georgian College in Barrie. I majored in Textile Design, which I chose because it gave me a lot of flexibility in media. Currently, I am painting in acrylic ,and in oil, on canvas. My other passion is gardening, and flowers often show up in my work! Archives
