Works - My Art Gallery

My favorite subjects to work with are birds and animals of all shapes and sizes.

To avoid getting stuck in a rut and prevent boredom I enjoy painting flowers or landscapes, and I love drawing live models in a studio setting.

Click on any thumbnail image in this gallery to see a larger version and a full description of each piece.

Commissions for wildlife art and pet portraits are always welcome, so if you have a favorite bird, beast, or a beloved pet you'd like to have a painting of, please go to the Contact page and send me a message. I'll be happy to discuss a project with you and answer any questions you may have!

Winter Wolf

16"x20" Watercolour, 300 lb., Arches cold-pressed paper.

This painting was commissioned by a private client whose husband loves wolves and collects images of them; she gave it to him as a Christmas gift.

The painting is based upon a photo taken by Karen Chomistek.

These images show the mediums I like to work with.

Although watercolours are my go-to for any subject, I find that working with oils, acrylics and graphite keep my skills fresh.

Besides, it's fun to switch from time to time!

The Grand River

Just Imagine...

This image was painted in oils on a 36"x48" canvas. It's a picture of 'Aartvark House', the imagined home & studio I would love to live and work in, to call my own. Painting it was a very satisfying experience, a way of expressing my appreciation for the things I love best about the countryside - open spaces, wildflowers, fog hovering just above the ground, and the wide range of colours most of all. Deliciously peaceful.
