Series Work
Certain subjects have held my attention over a group of paintings. Some series are ongoing. For details and availability of each painting visit The WORK section of the menu page.
Wind Series
Wind on the east coast plays a major part in the lives of maritimers, interacting with us in many ways. From hurricane force winds that shape and topple trees to playful gusts that lift kites and fallen leaves. Wind, in many ways, defines who we are.
Dinghy Beach Series
This series (sold out) consists of images related to a popular local beach in Pugwash, NS on the Northumberland Strait where swimmers and salt ships mingle. Jumping off the wharf is a rite of passage for the youth who gather there.
POAG Series
The Pugwash Open Air Gallery series depicts people interacting with the outdoor installations located around the village of Pugwash, Nova Scotia. Art that portrays a sense of time, place, and community.
Make America Great Series
Tongue in cheek visual interpretations of famous phrases by former president Donald Trump: “Make America Great Again”, “Very Fine People on Both Sides” referencing the events in Charlottesville, “It’s a Hoax” pertaining to climate change, and “Stand Back and Stand By” regarding the events of the insurrection.
Mannequin Series
I imagine the female torso as the symbolic encapsulation of the oppression of womankind. Minus appendages, her gender objectified, she is hobbled by inequality, bias, domestic violence, sexual abuse, patriarchy, misogyny, … and yet she presses forward, navigating the difficult shores of the 21st century.
