Still Life

Trying to capture the everyday life can be challenging at times when life seems like a whirlwind.

New Paintings...

So here, finally are some new paintings, pretty funny that our last post was July 06th!

What have we been doing - well... we had our Summer show, (that went well), camping, a trip to the mountains of British Columbia, our eldest daughter started school (with all the schedule changes that entails), commission work, new classes at the college. You name it, we did it!

So that's why there's been no updates lately!


Anyway, Corinne has been working on a series of paintings involving kid's toys, and I have been making some small work on panel. These'll be in our November show.

All of these look a paintings look a little warm coloured - that's because it's been such a beautiful week here in southern Ontario. Sunny skies, and warm breezes.

Home County Folk Fest.... here we come!!!

Come on out everyone!!!   This festival is fantastic if you like bluegrass, folk or blues music (and art too!!)  Pete and I will be there and we're excited to show our new paintings and prints.   Get a sneak peak at a few of our newest paintings......... enjoy and we hope to see you at the festival (July 15,16 and 17 in Victoria Park, London Ontario)
