Since I returned from a England a couple of weeks ago, I've been back in the studio and painting frantically. New works will be posted soon. In the meantime though, I will be contributing two or three works to a fundraiser for Autism in Muskoka - July 30 - August 1 (This coming weekend). For details, please see: Foot's Bay Art Festival. I plan to be there through Saturday and for a little while on Sunday, if you're in the area, I hope you'll be able to drop by.
If you can't make to this weekend's show and you would like to see more work, please feel free to visit Loch Gallery - In Toronto, Calgary or Winnipeg. |

One of the reasons for this recent trip to England and, without doubt, the most exciting, was the latest in our hiking / mountain scrambling adventures. This time, as mentioned in the last update, Mount Snowdon. The usual group turned out and, once again, we were blessed with perfect weather. Pictures can be seen in the following photo album: Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa).
The connection between all of this climbing, and art, might not be immediately evident, but I hope this will become clear over the coming year. In the meantime,
enjoy the pictures. |

The catalogue for my 2009 solo exhibition is a 40 page hard cover book which explores the core theme of my work, an idea that has developed gradually over the past 10 years. Juxt-Supposition is limited to just 33 copies, the last few however accompany paintings from this exhibition. A copy can be seen at Loch Gallery in Toronto, please feel free to drop by. New works will be delivered in May. |

Currently in production. This publication will be an 80 to 120 page hardcover book covering the past 25 years of my art and travels. It will include material from various trips and exhibitions, approximately 80 of my favourite paintings, along with anecdotes and a rather quirky look at the idea of inspiration itself.
The Journey and the Painter's Muse (Draft cover) will be available later this year - Inquires. |
