From Opera Date to Still Life....

This is the first painting I did containing my red shoes, red jacket, Valentines chocolates, etc.  It was juried into the Transitions exhibit at the Federation Gallery, April 9 - 21, 2013. 

After The Opera

I just completed this painting, "After the Opera".  It has some of my favourite things....red high heels and red leather jacket from my closet, chocolates from Rubens, fabric from my extensive and out of control fabric collection, a program from the Vancouver Opera Romeo and Juliet, and an empty coffee cup (addicted to coffee).  It is 16 x 16 and acrylic on canvas.

Nature Reclaims The Railway

This is a 9x12" acrylic painting (framed).  It is a closeup view of nature at work, doing what she does best.  This image was collected while on a walk around the inlet in Port Moody.  Part of the railway is used only occasionally on Canada day, and nature is quick to reclaim what she lost.

Emerging II

This painting was originally called Emerging, and was accepted into an abstract show at the Federation Gallery at Granville Island.  After I got it back from the show, I decided to make a few changes to the painting, and like it better now.  It will be displayed at the Port Moody Art Show, November 2,3,4.  The origin of the image was from a photo of oil stains on the concrete in the parking lot underneath the city hall in Port Moody.
