” Old Friends and New Adventures”
Over the years, some trails become like old friends. We revisit them and always come home with euphoric inspiration. No matter how much we hike, though, there are always new areas to explore and some of these are added to the list of special places. Many are the references for my paintings.
My latest collection of artworks will be shown at Canada House Gallery, Banff, opening Saturday, June 3, 2023. I will be in the gallery from noon to 4 p.m.
“Bow Valley View”, 16×24”, acrylic
“Joy”
“Alpine Summer”, 12×16”, acrylic, is my entry for the annual holiday exhibition at Canada House Gallery.
“Best of Times”
An exhibition of my new work will be shown at Canada House Gallery, Banff, August 12 to 15, 2021, http://canadahouse.com. The show title is a reference to Charles Dickens’ “A Tale of Two Cities”, which opens:
“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope…”
2020-21has been both the “best” and “worst” of times. It has been a challenging and even tragic time; yet for many artists it has also meant an abundance of studio time. I have been fortunate to hike and ski with great company and at the same time collect reference material for my artwork. I have loved painting this collection and I hope you enjoy it too!

The Invitations Have Arrived!
A Timeless Legacy: Peace Park 2018
I am very excited to be part of an invitational exhibition “A Timeless Legacy: Peace Park 2018” at the Hockaday Museum of Art in Kalispell, Montana. The Museum has invited chosen artists from Canada and the United States to visit both sections of the International Peace Park (Glacier National Park and Waterton National Park) and produce artwork for an exhibition opening August 10 and 11 and continuing to December, 2018. Each artist will submit one large and one or two small artworks from each park. There will also be a traveling component to the project, with details to be announced. My artworks for the exhibition are shown on this website in my Portfolio, A Timeless Legacy: Peace Park 2018.
