Trump turned his troops on the American people. Only the most naive would think he won't be willing to turn them on Canada. His officials claim Canada is running fentanyl, terrorists and El Salvador gangs across the border.

Painting and using natural materials for collage & printing. Beautiful weather, wonderful women, and the magic of Manitoulin Island.

More small 4x6 paintings. Not really feeling the owl but this was my first go at him, I want to do a larger version of it.

This past week I’ve been in my studio: going through paintings, framing pieces, creating some new ones, and filling in the gaps where I need to. It’s been a mix of organizing and dreaming about what I want to share with you in the Root & Bloom Art Community.

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?

Trying my hand at oil painting. Pic is of Lake Manitou, Manitoulin Island, ON, I took last year. Thanks to a friend for letting me use their paints, brushes etc. I'm pretty happy with the results & I feel a trip to buy new art supplies is imminent.

I take classes which make me paint in mediums & styles outside my comfort zone. Last night I painted this at my class. My son says it looks like 2 blobs with penis heads. It's supposed to be a woman & her dog 😆. Thoughts?

In a recent Substack post by Charlie Angus he talks about forming resistance groups (highly recommend following him on Substack). I regularly write about building community & in today's post I expand on the idea of resistance groups in our communities.

Just finished a 6 week sketchbook class. Lots of fun playing with different mediums & not worrying about outcomes. It's good to just let go.

Now that the commission is finished I can just paint whatever I want. I love days where I just get to paint whatever I like. I almost always only use my Beam paints now when painting watercolour.
