My new works are about places and events in Winnipeg and the province that strike a deeply personal and emotional connection with me. Pouring paint on canvas and moving it around to capture the feeling of being there, of bringing it to life and hopefully, connect the viewer to share the experience with me. Like skating on the river in winter, canoeing in summer, ice-breakup on the lake in spring, the rocks of the Canadian Shield, or just the light on the river at sunset. Mostly acrylic on canvas with some smaller watercolours on paper. Also included in the show will be some of the portraits of my animal friends. The polar bears and cows that always seem to intrude on my imagination...
