Canadian Artist - expressionistic animals, wildlife, landscape. Primarily acrylic, oil, inks, paper, wood. No NFTs, No DMs, 🇨🇦
It’s going to take awhile, I’m dealing with a back injury and I just don’t have the stamina and physical ability (movement) & painting. In the past few weeks I used a couple of 12x12 boards to paint on. #cdnartshow #wildlifeart #wolves #mixedmedia #canadianartist #animalart

I’ve been a bit under the weather but still trying to do a bit of #painting when I’m up to it. Titled Black Jack, is an oil and #mixedmedia 12x12 painting. Inspired by wine labels an old William Morris textiles is a #blackrabbit #cdnartshow #artshare #bunny #canadianartist

Minty Fresh, 12x12 oil painting on canvas. I started painting funny, expressive cows in acrylics over 10 years ago. Loud, bright, humorous. Minty is the softer, oil painted version of those square foot cow portraits. #cows #animals #cdnartshow #artshare #canuckcreatives #artist #expressionism

Rosetta Spotted, acrylic on canvas, 20x20. Part of the Blooming Wild Floral Series I’m working on. This time I did more of a #mixedmedia style and used spray paints and some stencils. #leopard #wildlifeart #cdnartshow #artshare #canadianartist #canuckcreatives #floralart #artist

Continued the Blooming Wild series with A Buck A Bouquet, oil on canvas. Heavily textured, gold drizzled paint hiding a buck amongst the foliage and flowers. #floralpainting #deer #cdnartshow #wildlifeart #flowers #canuckcreatives #artshare #artist

A Floral Riot, oil on canvas is a moodier, darker #expressionist floral painting. The colours of the blooms are colourful but with more depth. It leans to the #botanical with a somewhat hidden #butterfly. #floral #painting #cdnartshow #canadianartist #artshare #finearts #oilpainting

I decided that this year I would learn to paint florals in my own artistic style. Florals, trees and landscapes are not second nature to me and in the past I would give up. #expressionistic #floralpainting #flowers #artshare #canadianartist #cdnartshow #canuckcreatives #blooms #abstract

Sugar Rush, oils, mixed media on canvas. #Hummingbird amongst the flowers, #abstractrealism #bird #painting the movement of the bird and petals are at similar speed (colourful blur). The first hummingbird I’ve painted along with abstract #floral background. #canadianartist #artshare

Worked on a #collage, #mixedmedia painting called Laurel’s Perch. It’s quite a challenge for me to work in a square foot format. I wanted to try something illustrative and fall inspired. #owls #wildlifeart #canadianartist #artshare #cdnartshow #birds

Posted the unfinished painting … apologies. Can you tell what was missing?
August 27, 2025 at 3:54 PM
Shady Character, #mixedmedia on sq ft canvas. The little fox was hard on a small canvas. The background took some time building depth. Still it was missing something. Tried a tree - no. #fox #cdnartshow #canadianartist #wildlifeart #canuckcreatives #artshare

The Golden Age, mixed media and oil on canvas. I took this painting up north with me to get more work done on it on the rainy day. #lion #wildlifeart #animalart #canadianartist #cdnartshow #mixedmedia #canuckcreatives #artshare #bigcats #painter

Little art retreat with a friend resulted in better photos than painting. So much heat and no drought this summer plus fires. The water lines have never been this low. I was walking across parts that were under water last summer. #haliburton #ontario #summer #northernontario #provincialparks

Ancient myths and Lions. So all I have right now is the Ancient Greek alphabet written into textured modelling paste with some collage and the underpainting of a lion. That will wait until I’m back. I’m suppose to try out plein air painting for the first time. #artshare #workinprogress #lion

Going on a retreat soon with a friend and fellow artist. Might try some plein air painting (never done). Whispers on the Porch is finished. Once the oil had a chance to dry I put in the pops of colour and highlights. #artshare #wildlifeart #cdnartshow #wolves #canadianartist #painting

Work in progress on this mixed media and oil painting. Not sure if the final title will be Waiting on a Friend, or Whispers on the Porch. Working with oil takes a bit longer. #artshare #cdnartshow #wildlifeart #canadianartist #wolves #wolfpainting #canuckcreatives #animalart

Another scorching summer day, some messy underpainting happening before I buckle down and have to concentrate 😂 #canadianartist #artshare #canuckcreatives #wildlifeart #wolves #cdnartshow #workinprogress

Early morning, crickets and birds chirping, it’s cooler phew. Found a pack of artist charcoal. Sprayed down the wolf with a fixitif. Thinking a sheer wash of orange then possibly go in with oils (haven’t done that in a while). #artshare #sketch #workinprogress #canadianartist #wildlifeart

No Vacancy, #mixedmedia. First it’s the largest #tiger I’ve painted. It’s lying down in an old hotel/motel room with peeling wallpaper, fast food menus on the wall and an old neon sign. There’s no room for stuff that doesn’t serve us. #cdnartshow #artshare #wildlifeart #collage #artist
August 11, 2025 at 10:30 AM
Work in progress, another tiger. I keep seeing them in my dreams? They aren’t chasing me, one handed me his paw to hold. #collage, modelling clay, grungy background (hotel room), tiger ready to paint. #mixedmedia #artshare #canadianartist collage: old notes, torn takeout menu and wallpaper.

Firebird, #mixedmedia #collage. A complete collaged piece, inks and acrylics. Symbolizing the Phoenix and rising from the ashes. Resurgence, freedom. #artshare #canadianartist #cdnartshow #fantasy #expressionistic #canuckcreatives

I don’t paint with red often as a dominant colour. Decided on a darker, moodier painting with acrylics & inks. Kindred Spirit. It’s contemplative, not sad, but lost in deep thoughts. #mixedmedia #raven #corvids #birdpainting #expressionistic #canadianartist #cdnartshow #artshare #canuckcreatives

Something started … #workinprogress #canadianartist so I see images in paint splatters - who knows where’s it going to go. Letting go of expectation and playing. #abstractart

The local #pigeons drying on my easel early this morning. Locals 67 & 68 are both #mixedmedia #artshare #cdnartshow #birds #canuckcreatives #canadianartist #birdart
August 2, 2025 at 10:54 AM
Work in progress, with the last two canvas boards. Underpainting laid out in acrylics and inks with some spray paint. Finishing with oils. Local 68 needs to dry a bit to continue. #pigeon #birdart #cdnartshow #artshare #canadianartist #canuckcreatives
