“Painting is an endlessly fascinating (and frustrating) way to untangle myself. I paint with curiosity; exploring emotion and life through colour and brushstroke, seeking to create compositions that simultaneously burst with joy while listening to the peaceful whispers of shadow. I look to nature for inspiration but look within for the work, the play, the love of it all. There’s a levity and liveliness to my paintings – a sense of wonder tinted with a sweep of humour. I admire the unusual, celebrate the weird, tread quietly and lightly in this world, and am leaving a bold, colourful trail of work behind.”
A little garden pick for you today 🌷

This lovely painting says so much without much fanfare - just doing its peaceful floral thing in its peaceful floral way - and would be just the sweetest touch to any room it finds a home in. Yes, the original is available! Maybe this is the one for you? ❤️

(have to add my promise that it`s a thousand times more beautiful in person than this photo I took.)

At the end of the day, to have offered more flowers than I`ve stepped on. That is the goal ❤️🌼

For dozens of colourful and personal reasons (that seem to grow daily), I`m being drawn into the garden with my brushes again. Wondering what I`ll find is just the beginning of my joy.

Starting the quiet process of saying goodbye to summer. Cool mornings, leaves dropping, petals fading .... so grateful I caught some of the gardens beauty in brushstrokes this year - paintings like this will keep me going all winter. 🖤

I said hello as the day said goodbye 💜

The subtle colors swept up in each brushstroke, the delicate touches, the surface texture, the warm pinky-mauve sky with layered cloud play stretching for miles ... all bits of intimate, tangible magic impossible to properly capture here but essential to how lovely this painting is in-person. hello indeed.
