November 10, 2016: I was interviewed by Daily Paintworks as their Spotlight Artist for a week! Read my interview on the DPW News blog! 
Infinite Sky 
I put a few things on the back burner while I was working so hard to get ready for my show at Assiniboia Gallery next month. I painted this little commission awhile ago but knew it was not needed until August, so I delayed delivering it. I finally got that task done yesterday, as well as a few other jobs.

I must say that it's pretty cool when an artist, who is miles ahead of you in success and experience, commissions you for a little piece of art. This very thing has happened twice now in the last six months. It makes me feel like I am on the right track.

Please visit me on Instagram! Click the camera for the link. To receive these blog posts directly through email, please follow the steps below: I began this blog in August 2009 to record my journey as a mom trying to become an artist. As it turns out I have always been an artist, I just never had the confidence to think of myself that way. I have grown so much in these nine years and this blog reflects that. I used to wish I could paint like all the other artists I came across. Now I just want to paint like me. I actually want to be different! My immediate goal is to continue to find my unique voice through paint. Although my work is representational, I am not necessarily aiming for precise realism, but rather for an expression of how I see and feel the subject in that moment. Ultimately I hope to show my love for the natural world through my brushstrokes, compositions and colour choices. I welcome your comments and your emails. They help me feel connected, inspired and motivated. Thank you and stop by anytime!
 If you would like more information about my paintings please email me at email@example.com. Thank you for taking the time to look at my work. "Do I contradict myself? Very well, then I contradict myself. I am large, I contain multitudes."
