Moment to Moment opens at Gallery8!

I’m very excited to share some of the new paintings I’ve been creating for the past six months and my newest show “Moment to Moment” opens at Gallery8 tomorrow night, from 5-8pm. I’ll be there so drop by and say Hi if you’re in the area!

“Moment to Moment” is a joint show featuring my newest paintings and fabulous pottery by Karen Reiss, opening Friday September 4th with reception at the gallery from 5 – 8pm. The show runs through the month of September 2026.

Here is a sample of my latest work featured at the show…

Stroll through the garden with brush and paint!

Ten new piantings!! These are for the Spotlight Show at Peninsula Gallery on Saturday Aug 29th, and I’ll be in the gallery from 1 – 3pm for anyone who would like to stop in and say hi!

Seven of the paintings were inspired by my flower garden and the wonderful creatures that inhabit it. The remaining three paintings are colourful renderings of beautiful Vancouver Island.

The Garden Series

Hi folks! My next show is quickly coming up at Peninsula Gallery – Canada opening Saturday, August 29th and I’ll be in the gallery from 1-3pm if you’d like to stop by and say hi! The show runs from Aug 29th to Sept 17th.

This is one of several new paintings I’ve been creating for this show, titled: Wild Roses. This is one of several paintings that take you on a walk through a blooming garden filled with life and sunlight, finding different flowers and garden friends along the way. Combining representation and abstraction, I’ve expanded my ball and block motif into the realm of flora and fauna and it’s been a lot of fun!

Island In The Sun

A new block painting fresh from the studio: Island In The Sun (18 x 24 inches), acrylic on canvas. This is a loose rendering of Saltspring Island and the beautiful Pacific ocean that surrouonds it. My newest piece is being featured tonight at Gallery 8 on beautiful Saltspring Island for it’s 17th aniversary show and the show will run for the next three weeks so stop by if you’re in the area and have a peek!

Gallery 8 Show Opening!

Hi folks, I’ll be at the show opening on Friday night at Gallery 8 (Nov 28) on Saltspring Island! This is the gallery’s annual small works show where my small painting “Radiant Bear” and miniature “Winter Walk” (which I don’t have a picture of yet – sorry!) will be featured. These larger paintings will be there too. The opening is from 5-8pm and lots of fun so come by if you’re in the area and say hi!

A New Journey

After many years of studying and painting external landscapes it has been an adventure of a new kind to reflect on the curious nature of internal landscapes and what existential aspects of them might look like painted in a simple form.

Block paintings – What are they about?

My purpose for this series of paintings is to create an expression of the dynamism of the human spirit (represented by the circle) as it navigates a journey through the experience of life (represented by the blocks). The black line surrounding all objects signifies the great mystery that holds things together, and yet separate from each other, creating a perfectly imperfect motif of existence and what one makes of it.

Below is one of the images from my new series for the current Spot Light show at Peninsula Gallery in Syndey, BC. The show continues to July 11th.

Something new!

For anyone who’d like to see some of my non-miniature artwork, here is a peek at my new show opening on Saturday, June 15th. I often paint tiny miniatures and large abstracts on the same day, switching between the two for a nice change of pace. Thank you to Peninsula Gallery for hosting this show, it was a lot of fun to do. I’ll be in the gallery on Saturday from 11am – 3pm for anyone who wants to stop by and say hi! 😊🖌🎨
