Heavy Holsteins
Acryllic On Canvas, 2ft x 3ft SOLD




The photograph from which I painted is an oldie but a goodie.  I keep on revisiting this piece and painting it slightly different each time.  I love the result.  The contrasts of the shadows and the colour in the black and white colouring of the cows make painting this piece an excersise in geometry and colour….I get completely lost in it every time. 

  Case's Massey Fergusson 156
Acrylic On Canvas, 12" x 12", SOLD


I love this one.  I really get obsessed with painting wheels and machines and this was an inspiring picture to paint.  When I paint tractors from up-close it becomes an exercise in semi abstraction- FUN. This vintage tractor belongs to Case- a farmer on Wolfe Island form whom I buy Back Angus free range, grass fed, hormone free beef.  It is the best beef I have ever had and even better knowing that these little guys have a great life. 
Stephanie's Sheep
 Acrylic On Canvas, 12" x 12", for sale


These beauties were a pleasure to shoot and a pleasure to paint!  Sometimes paintings come together very naturally which was the case with this one.  Welcome spring with new life and beautiful weather.  I recently visited Stephanie’s farm and got to hold a baby sheep that was only a few days old.  I can't wait to go back there soon to take some more photos of that magical place. 


Happy Herd, SOLD
Acrylic On Canvas, 12" x 12"
Art Among the Ruins Exhibition


This is my favorite painting I have done this year.  The colours on this piece are vibrant and fresh.  The contrast between the reds and greens in this image are punchy and fun.  This shot was taken late in the day last summer on Wolfe Island.  Cows are beautiful.


This Thursday from 7-10!
Come enjoy a delightful evening filled with conversation, paintings, food and wine
Hope to see you out at Cornerstone for the Art After Dark Show

Come See my paintings at Cornerstone the evening of May 23, 7-10pm. 

I am the featured artist!  While you are at it, I would highly recommend checking out some of the other Galleries!  Deborah Krakow my friend and also one of my favourite artists is Showing at Studio 22. 

The downside of being in the show is you don't get to go on the tour!  I will have to check them all out another day.
