I hear from many it’s the b&w that resonates.. I initially went in that direction because it’s me. Here’s a recent piece.. the different dimensions doing their thing ✨ https://www.instagram.com/p/Ce3pMncuLcA/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Inventory! Some new work headed for the #millpondgallery & #owensoundartistscoop https://www.instagram.com/p/CetzApWFM47/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

In process.. 🌈✨ https://www.instagram.com/p/CeTJAAyONiV/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

An arty story that seems worth sharing.. so much like life. I’ve been working on what I thought was a good idea. A series of black and white work based on graffiti in Colombia observed while travelling. Not to make a statement or political comment but to abstract it a little.. it presents a difficult space to understand in black and white and I love those spaces. Through this process it’s been dawning on me that it’s not working. Too abstract, complex, inaccessible and too much information. At the same time thinking about how I can do colour and it excites me. And how a landscape is so simple/complex and a space that’s forgiving of my style in a way that will really free me up. So.. sometimes you work long and hard to then do a complete 180 and start again. It’s still progress though!! On to some colour 🏔🌈 https://www.instagram.com/p/CeCGRdoPccU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Production mode.. the best feeling if it’s turning over correctly. Dabbing the brush on the table without thinking is a good sign 👍😂 https://www.instagram.com/p/CdwT9FrLsub/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

During our time in Colombia I took tons and tons of photos .. some with the intent to paint later because I thought wow, what a difficult/beautiful space, or person, light, or just something about it. Working away with them now.. trying to loosen up and engage where I want to go with it rather than where I “should”.. a few details of a process.. 🙌 (at Colombia) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cc6OEMLvhIm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
