I recently painted 20 original works for local playwright/director Ken Brown. Hi show is a one man-old school sci-fi play and made its World premiere in Orlando, Florida Fringe 2016! The paintings were projected behind the actor on a large screen. The play should hopefully be hitting Canada sometime in 2017.

After many months I finally finished my series of Galaxies and Nebulae based on hubble deep space photographs. The paintings are on birch wood and have layers of resin poured in between the layers of acrylic paint producing a rich 3-dimensional effect. A selection from this series can be viewed at the Telus World of Science in Edmonton, AB for the next few months in the lobby of the Margaret Zeidler star theatre. Many of the pieces are still available for purchase and are a wonderful gift for the stargazer on your list.

Earlier this year, I participated in Paint Spot’s Unfinished Art Challenge. Each artist brings in at least one unfinished work and ANOTHER artist takes it home and finishes it. It was a wonderful and fun exercise. I brought in two paintings and took home two.
Here are the works I took home and finished:

From June 18-28, 2014, I am pleased to say my new series of encaustic paintings ‘From the Ether’, a combination of wax, monoprint and charcoal, were on display at the Varscona Theatre in Edmonton, Alberta. The pieces were in the theatre lobby and could be viewed for free anytime the theatre was open. This exhibit ran along with a play called ‘Lucy and Mr.Plate’, a sequel to a positively received 2001 play ‘Citizen Plate’. It was very funny.
