This tiny miniature painting was inspired by a lovely scene along a quiet stretch of country road in Cedar BC. Teaming with wildlife and all kinds of colour and texture, this little patch of wetland was a miniature painting just waiting to happen.
This miniature painting is available at Peninsula Gallery in Sidney, BC.
I am very pleased to be participating in the up coming art show “Honey, I Shrunk The Art” at Matzke Fine Art Gallery and Sculpture Park on Camano Island, Wa. A fabulous collection of small and tiny artworks will be showcased at the gallery beginning Saturday, November 21st and running through to January 10th. Please stop by if you are in the area or visit Matzke Fine Art Gallery on-line!
My kids did not always appreciate being dragged out of bed for an early morning photo shoot with mom, but they did develop a healthy love for Mother Nature and her mysterious moods. This was one of our favourite haunts on chilly autumn mornings, near Silvermere lake in Mission, BC. It was usually followed up with copious amounts of hot chocolate while fingers and toes thawed out afterward. 🙂
“Autumn Morning” acrylic on paper board, a tiny 4 x 2.25 inches small.
I love the way deep autumn reveals the rich colours and textures of landscape, the last “hurrah!” of the season. This miniature painting was inspired by a lovely October stroll with my daughter, along the Nanaimo River.
“Nature’s Palette” – acrylic on paper board, a tiny 2.5 x 3.5 inches small.
This painting is available for purchase at Rendezvous Art Gallery, in Vancouver, BC.
The colourful leaves and crisp morning air signal a change of palette as my creative thoughts turn to the beauty of autumn. Painting this image reminded me of many walks through this lovely forest, where thoughts and memories were carried along the tracks. There is something peaceful about watching lines disappear in the distance, maybe it is the promise of possibilities.
The Red Canoe – acrylic on paper board. Actual size: a tiny 1.75 x 5.25 inches small.
A new miniature painting, fresh off my drawing table, “The Red Canoe” features a coastal scene along Gabriola Island, near Nanaimo BC. I felt particularly Canadian while painting this little piece and it reminded me of how lovely it is to paddle about in a canoe or row boat, or kayak for that matter!
Sunshine, stars, a dash of blue sky and swirls! I used felt pens for this one, how would you colour it?

With high hopes and green thumbs twitching, we tried to grow a lovely big pumpkin patch in our garden this year. But sadly, our valiant efforts yielded only one, rather small, rather speckled, greenish pumpkin. We named him Pickle. So…I have resorted to drawing my beloved pumpkins instead, complete with grinning faces and patterned skins. I hope you will add your own artistic flair to this mischievous duo! Happy colouring. 🙂

Welcome Autumn! This new drawing features some of my favourite things about fall, and September in particular, with a new palette of fruit, flowers and leaves bursting with inspiration. And many wonderful books to add to my fall reading list, as the cool weather brings longer evenings for cozy reading, and of course, colouring!

For me, summer time is a beautiful kaleidoscope of energy, warmth, colour and spirit. Infuse that with a smattering of Moroccan inspiration and this tile shaped mandala is the result! That said, a completely different colour scheme could change the feeling of this drawing altogether in many wonderful ways. How would you colour this tile?
