Book cover for Jillian Meadows' Give Me Butterflies (A Novel). Quote on front cover from B.K. Borison says, "This story reached right into my chest, grabbed my heard, and didn't let go." The cover is illustrated to show a man and woman embracing in a greenhouse or butterfly sanctuary or some kind of building with glass walls and ceiling.

The man has his eyes closed and is nuzzling into the woman's cheek, and is wearing a shirt and tie, a pair of slacks, and some nice brown shoes. In the foreground are daisy-looking flowers (except they are purple) and monarch butterflies.

Book cover for New York Times Bestselling Author Penelope Douglas' Punk 57. Cover is all greyscale with the words "Punk 57" repeating like they've fallen down the left side of the cover. The main title and author's name appear in the center of the cover, as if the cover is ripped and this part is displayed behind it. This is apparently an Indigo Exclusive cover.

Book cover of Olivie Blake's The Atlas Paradox. Subtitle says, "Destiny is a choice", text above the author's name says, "New York Times Bestselling Author of The Atlas Six". Cover is light grey with gold and dark circles and lines on it in a very abstract manner. I'm sure it represents something, but I'm not sure what it is.

I have a lot of Canadian artwork. My favourite is my Wendy Tancock artwork. (Images not my own as artwork is still in ex's house and I haven't been able to rescue them yet)
Framed print leaning against the wall. Print is of the five great lakes, below the lakes are 4 checkerboxes, with the following text : nice lakes, o.k. lakes, good lakes, great lakes!! The last checkbox, beside 'great lakes!!' is checked. Framed print leaning against the wall. Print shows a curling rock hurling down a sheet of ice, with the words 'Canada rocks!' below it
