This piece is created out of inspiration from our trip to Elbow falls, Alberta. The day was beautiful and a few clouds hanging around in interesting patterns. I noticed some rocks and the standing water had a unique colourful moss growing over it and some trees leaning on each other and hanging on for dear life. I had to paint it. It’s a ready to hang gallery wrapped canvas with continued painting on the sides of the frame.

This piece is made out of inspiration from our drive in Rocky View County, Alberta. We get such beautiful and unreal sunsets and sunrises. I was going to pick up my son and I noticed that the sunset looks like a flame of a candle or maybe wings of an angel, you might see something else in this composition. Little pieces of clouds were scattered in a symmetry and yet looked like a flock of birds. This is such a vibrant piece and I’ve used metallic colours to add a little more spice. Bold palette knife strokes are evident in this piece. It’s a gallery wrapped ready to hang piece with continuous painting on the sides.

These Hollyhocks are created in Plein Air. We never planted the seeds and yet the resilience of nature started to sprout. I painted these in my yard. Dark violet and a hint of light highlights with yellow middle, honestly this piece speaks poetry of nature. It’s a gallery wrapped, ready to hang piece with the sides painted as well. The picture of this art doesn’t do justice, it’s so much more in real life.

This is a gallery wrapped, ready to hang piece with the sides painted as well. This piece is made out of inspiration from one of my most favourite artists from the past, Van Gogh. I love irises in general and especially this is a beautiful reminder of Van Gogh in my own style. This piece is textured as well. Pallet knife was used for creating this work. The colours are so soft and yet bright. It’s so pleasing to the eyes.

This is an amazing piece and would go well on a tall wall by itself or with the other piece which I have on the site as a pair. It’s a water fall with rocks on the side and a closeup view of a tall tree. I’ve used actual bark for creating the tree trunk that gives this piece extra depth for the observer. It’s a gallery wrapped, ready to hang piece. I hope that you enjoy this piece as much as I enjoyed the process of creating

Inspiration was drawn from a gift of Hydrangeas that I got from my children and hubby on Mother’s Day. The colours are absolutely gorgeous and vibrant to take you into my world of imagination and creativity. This blooming piece would bring a spark to your home or office.

This is a textured original piece of art created using palette knife and the metallic silver which makes this piece very dynamic look. I’ve used silver to make the snow grap more attention and add depth to the piece. Vibrant colours give a lovely vibrancy.
