The first work on paper was very spontaneous and was finished very quickly. It became a study for this canvas which is one of three hanging in The Dunes at Brackley Beach.
Dimensions: 18" x 20", Medium: acrylic on canvas.

The South Shore
I saw "The South Shore" from a window looking out over the Hillsborough Bay just at the point where the three rivers, North, West and Hillsborough, meet. It was a fleeting look and I retained an image in my mind of the light on the water and in the sky.

The landscape features most prominently in the body of my work. It is a landscape of suggestion, rather than a faithful figurative rendering; it is a landscape of fiction and abstraction. Major influences on my work have been the Canadian landscape, the tropical forest of the Congo and the land of the Mediterranean/Middle East. Born in Exeter, Ontario,I studied at the University of Prince Edward Island, McGill University in Montreal and the Université du Québec à Trois Rivières.
I always ask one question; when does the unconventional become so utterly conventional as to become uninteresting - dull in fact? I hope these are not dull whatever else they are. Let me know what you think.

Free Range Fields
Free Range Fields portrays the landscape of Prince Edward Island with its distinctive red soil. The potato field appears animated as the green rows and furrowed red soil rush down to the sea. The sky is reflected in the water.
This canvas is one of a series that highlights the rural views of Prince Edward Island and is one of three hanging in The Dunes at Brackley Beach.
Dimensions: 20" x 26", Medium: acrylic on canvas.

The Faces in Question
Drawings start with a doodle and expand into something a little more developed.
The elements find themselves in need of rearranging,
or elaboration,
or rescue!
