Humbled to have my watercolour painting, “Beside Himself” selected as a Top Ten Finalist in this juried art exhibition of 105 amazing artworks. Thanks to the esteemed judges Celine Cardineau, Fabian Jean and Carlos Salamanca for their thoughtful consideration, and to Artists in Montreal. So happy!

American produce once filled Canadian grocery stores.

Now, item by item, we’re replacing U.S. goods with global options—sometimes local, sometimes imported, but always better.

Playing to cheer myself up because tariff life sucks. This fun pigment drift is what happens with uneven drying times on Aquabord. Any ideas for a title?
