Finding a bloom in the weeds. A canoe trip to Feist Lake provided numerous nature photographs.  Hiking through the tall grass to an abandoned trapper’s cabin, I was surrounded by the incredible world of art beneath my feet.

Walking through tall grasses often makes me want to go swimming beneath them and see a world closer to the ground. The sun broke through the blades and sheathes one morning and presented this flower just waking up. It was a lovely surprise.

I’ve always enjoyed portaging my canoe from one body of water to another. Time to enjoy incredible scenery along the way with the excitement of what is yet to come. Many a trail has ended between two impressive cliffs. Face to Face depicts one such portage ending with a magnificent waterfall.

Opening up a Tea Room in Kenora, Ontario in an abandoned old church has its challenges. One dilemma was what to use as placemats for the table settings. The architecture of this landmark was an important factor in understanding the historical settlement of Lake of the Woods. What better way to pay tribute to this tourist destination than create a commemorative series of the area.

Sketching in ink one day, I fell into a news trap, listening to the craziness infiltrating our world order. This piece developed out of those feeds and represents a world that is truly upside down.

The Power of Water was created as an abstract by experimenting on how turpentine would enhance the molecular movement of water over a natural substrate and how the deep undertones are shadowed beneath.

The Intruders was inspired by growing up on the farm. We had fences that had been broken down and I remember the wolves coming in to get the chickens from the coop.

This was created as a tribute to an unforgettable sailing adventure with a great friend and myself. Trusting that our nautical map was true, we entered a long narrow channel, zig zagging in a run, envisioning our planned outlet at the end. As we neared the narrows, it became evident we were not sailing through. Two hours later, multiple logs for rolling and much grunting, we got through our unexpected portage. The scene is real.

I have always enjoyed sketching buildings, likely influenced by my design/build background. Details in my job are important. They evidently find their way into many of my skecthworks.
