New Year, New Projects!

Happy 2025! We are well into the new year now and I am excited to be working on some of the many new projects which have been floating around in my brain a while now. Normally, I take much of January away from the Studio, time to visit family and refilll the creative tank, but this year I am delaying my break a little and plunging straight in. So far several new bookmark designs and a couple of new Tea Towel ideas have taken shape. More to follow!

In the meantime, I have a few remaining calendars at the studio so I have put them at half price here on the site, if anyone is still looking for one

Winter Studio hours are still pretty regular, with core hours being 10 - 4 weekdays and 11 - 4 on the weekends. However, there may be a few exceptions so please check with me via email (beaverpd@telus.net) if you want to make sure I am here when you intend to visit.

Winter Studio Hours

Mondays -Tuesdays 10am - 4pm

Wednesdays - Fridays 10.00am - 4pm

Saturdays and Sundays 11am - 4pm

About Hilary

Soon after moving from the UK to Vancouver in 1987, Hilary picked up a paintbrush as a way of getting to know her new hometown. She had no idea then that she would be spending the next thirty years recording Vancouver’s ever-changing neighbourhoods and vistas in vibrant watercolour and Indian Ink. Her early paintings, which focused on the city’s historic buildings and local haunts, may have given way to wider panoramas of the city and its environs, but her images remain just as colourful and detailed. The city continues to grow and change, providing her plenty of new images to capture!
Hilary’s original paintings start off as detailed pen-and-ink drawings, after which Gouache (opaque watercolour) is added (sometimes along with watersoluble wax crayon, pencils and pigmented pen). The detail is finally added with India ink in a steel-tipped technical pen.
