The new jigsaw puzzles are now in stock in time for Christmas, though in very limited quantities.   Last week I had to dash over to the UK unexpectedly as my Mum was quite ill.  I spent a few days sitting with her as she, thankfully, recovered from the worst of it.  I took the opportunity to do one of my jigsaws, with her direction, and I have to say I found it quite challenging - even though I know these images pretty well now! Anyway, I hope you'll find them both challenging and fun!  

Well, it certainly seems that way here - and even though Autumn is my absolute favourite time of year, there is usually little time to get out and enjoy it as there is always so much to do here in preparation for the Holiday Season. Calendars and now in stock ( Search the store under "calendars")   I have printed fewer of the small coil-bound calendar this year, to avoid having to throw any away at the end of the year, and even fewer of the Desk Calendar so if you would like one of those two styles, please order as...

I realize I have forgotten to update my Website to show where you can find me (other than in my studio) this Summer.  As usual I will be at some of the Ladner Farmers Markets, on July 28th, August 25th and September 8th. You can also find me during the second weekend only of the wonderful Harmony Arts Festival in West Vancouver.  The dates are August 9th,10th and 11th and you can find out more information at harmonyarts.ca.  Sadly I will only have a small space so might not be able to show all my new work, but I will try to...

Some of you may have noticed that I have painted a lot of images which feature Autumn Colours.  My great love for the cool crisp days of fall likely dates back to when I would return to University in the beautiful City of Durham, in North East England, and I would walk to classes alongside the River Wear.  The colours of the trees were stunning - reflections in the water alongside that of magnificent Durham Cathedral.  I was so very fortunate to spend three years in such an inspirational place. These days, even though this time of year is usually my busiest, with all...

Did you buy your small coil bound calendar early this year?  By early, I mean before October 1st, possibly at the Harmony Arts Festival or Ladner Market?  Sadly, we discovered a big mistake for the month of March 2019, but have been able to print a self adhesive page to stick over the problem page and I am happy to send you one free of charge, of course, if you let me know your address.  Please email me through the contact page here and I will make sure your March 2019 doesn't remain messed up!   I am so sorry. Must. Improve. Proofing.
