Saying I am excited to return to Artwalk this summer is an understatement. I have new work, new subject matter and am using new mediums. I have been drawing more, and I must confess drawing has always been my first love, but drawings are harder to keep safe. So I turn to the brush, myContinue reading “Summer 2022 : New Art & the ArtWalk”

The Games Table is done!
After many late nights and googling of old game board pieces, I have finally completed the Games Table. Yahoo! Games have so many memories attached to them, and they can bring you right back to your childhood. The laughing, the fun and sometimes the flipping of the game board. Games are a big part ofContinue reading “The Games Table is done!”
Holiday Gift Ideas
This year has been hard and we all could use something to look forward to. I am pleased to share with you my 2020 holiday gift ideas
The games cupboard … WIP
Well I must say that trying to be creative whole social distancing and working from home with a 4.5 year old has proven to be very difficult. It takes a lot of energy and time to plan and fill his days with positivity and to lessen the feeling of having no peers to play with.Continue reading “The games cupboard … WIP”
I am finally back at the easel with … Marble Marble
After my adventures down the inktober road in the fall my creative endeavours slowed to almost a halt.

Finally with the new year well underway I am feeling strong and ready to take theContinue reading “I am finally back at the easel with … Marble Marble”
#inktober my journey so far… day 9

The Power of Greyskull!
Late last night I was able to complete He-man & Battle-Cat. My little brother was a serious fan of He-man. I clearly remember him wheeling his giant plastic sword around inciting the power of greyskull. Having a 4 year old around re enacting similar scenes shakes of the cobwebs off of old memories and theyContinue reading “The Power of Greyskull!”
Green Army Men
I don’t know if you can get more classic than the green army men. Â These gentlemen have been on my to do list for awhile, so when the season of sickness past they were the first to hit the canvas. Â The green army man has probably seen more than his share of battles, more thanContinue reading “Green Army Men”
Sketching for my son
The new year brought in the cold and a series of colds that plagued my family for weeks. I have been too busy battling the runny nose to have the chance to put the brush to the canvas. This week I got that chance and boy did that feel good. During this forced down timeContinue reading “Sketching for my son”
A studio date with my son
This Wednesday afternoon my son asked me to paint with him in the studio. He has a painting easel set up next to mine in my studio. So down we went into the painting studio, we adorned our smocks, put some tunes on and began the painting adventure. For about 30 minutes we painted andContinue reading “A studio date with my son”
