    South Beach Blues

    $85.00 – $595.00

    The easily navigated South Beach and Nuu-chah-nulth Trail leads to this incredible beach south end of Wickaninnish Beach in beautiful Pacific Rim National Park Reserve. This place is an artist’s dream and I have been fortunate to have spent many hours there. Wild and wet or sapphire blue and serene. This is the beach with everything…exciting, inspirational and just plain awesome!

    Schooner Cove, Tofino

    $20.00 – $595.00

    Schooner Cove Beach in Pacific Rim National Park is a magnificent site for artists. It has what I call “lots of architecture”, rocky shores and headlands overhung with Cedar and Hemlock and also craggy outcrops that spring from the golden sands and become islands at high tide. It’s easy to get to along the Schooner Cove Trail.

  • Somenos Marsh

    Somenos Marsh

    $85.00 – $595.00

    I have always loved a good marsh, the sound of birds and life is comforting. And the Somenos Marsh Conservation Area is a really good marsh! It’s a globally significant Important Bird and Biodiversity Area (IBA), and an annual overwintering and feeding spot for waterfowl travelling the Pacific Flyway. Archaeological evidence shows the Cowichan people have occupied the lands in and around the marsh for at least 4,000 years.

    Fisgard Lighthouse

    $85.00 – $595.00

    Since1860, Fisgard Lighthouse has served continuously as a beacon on Canada’s West Coast. Although still in operation, it also serves as a museum with interactive displays and vintage photographs. It occupies the same location as Fort Rodd Hill National Historic site – a beautiful park featuring acres of historical buildings and meadows overlooking Esquimalt Harbour.

    Visions of Metchosin

    $85.00 – $465.00

    One summer day, we were walking along the coast in the breathtaking East Sooke Park, and I settled down to do a series of sketches of this beautiful rugged coastline. Windswept trees, rocky shores scattered with the long spirals of bull kelp, sun casting white across the ocean, islands peeping out like whales from the turquoise sea. It was a blissful landscape.
    When I returned to my studio I fused the sketches into one painting.

    Divine Composition

    $85.00 – $595.00

    Being an artist means composing, designing or creating visual poetry but never replicating or transcribing. Leave that to the camera. Whistler was criticized in his day for saying that he rearranged his compositions because nature never got it right. BUT – this place, Little Qualicum Falls is perfect. There is nothing I could do to improve or enhance the scene. Magic!

    Painted on site at Saxe Point Park in Esquimalt. Inspired by the spectacular views of the Olympic Mountains and Strait of Juan de Fuca. The park was created in 1934, and during World War II, many mature Douglas fir and Grand fir trees were cleared and a searchlight was installed as part of shoreline defense.

    Standing Together

    $85.00 – $480.00

    I just love the mossy trunks of the old Maple trees. The trees are so big and have so much character, they are like people. This pair stand together, witnessing the world rushing by as they quietly and slowly grow

    Paradise Meadows Boardwalk

    $85.00 – $205.00

    “Paradise Meadows Boardwalk” was inspired by a trip to Mount Washington in the spring. It is a mountain ski village where a boardwalk has been built over the fragile vegetation in an area aptly named Paradise Meadows. The easy walk along the boardwalk is serene and relaxing as it meanders over the colorful flowers and passes peaceful ponds. It is also the gateway to the many hiking trails available in Strathcona Park.

    Memories of Saturna II

    $85.00 – $595.00

    A magical wedding at East Point Park on Saturna Island prompted this painting. The light was so dazzling and the landscape so imbued with colour, it just cried out for a painting. East Point Park is now a part of the Gulf Islands National Park Reserve, one of Canada’s newest national parks. The park protects a beautiful landscape of rocky headlands, forested hills and shorelines studded with colourful tidepools.

    Golden Hinde

    $130.00 – $500.00

    There are so many mountains to climb here on the island and the Golden Hinde provides spectacular views. Often hikers will bare their backsides on The Golden Hinde because the next mountain in view is actually called The Behinde. The Golden Hinde is the highest peak on the island, and is located near the geographic centre of Vancouver Island, as well as near the centre of Strathcona Provincial Park.

    Incoming Tide

    $85.00 – $465.00

    The west coast offers an endless variety of compositional possibilities to the artist. Botany Bay near Port Renfrew inspired this piece. I stood on the shore for hours absorbing the feeling of the place and the character of the elements. Small preliminary sketches begin my process. Back at my studio I composed this painting with the foreground rocks designed to represent the eroding yet steadfast island resisting the relentless seas.

    Storms toss logs into a tangle along the shores of French Beach Provincial Park. This beautiful stretch of forested hiking trails, flat beaches and perfect picnic spots is an ideal location to keep an eye out for incredible wildlife. In the spring watch for migrating Gray whales. All year you can see resident killer whales, otters, seals, sea lions, Bald eagles, osprey and a variety of seabirds.

    Precarious Balance

    $85.00 – $205.00

    This collaged monoprint was inspired by many plein air sessions on the Nanaimo River. I love watching birds and am impressed by people who balance stones along the shore. It occurred to me that the stones could be a metaphor for human relationship to nature. It is clear that this beautiful and necessary balance is becoming more and more precarious. I hope this piece inspires others to consider their balance with nature.

    Forest Bathing

    $130.00 – $500.00

    The forest is a huge reason I moved to the island. That and the ocean. If ever I need a boost in my life I go into the forest to reset the ‘refresh’ button. Light can look different there, smells are earthy, sounds of the leaves in the wind are all soothing. My inspiration for this piece is the Upper Maple Syrup Trail on Maple Mountain.

    Mossy Forest

    “Mossy Forest” was inspired by the forests that surround Campbell River, including the incredible Elk Falls Park. The majestic trees covered with moss are a staple in the Vancouver Island landscape. You can feel the coolness of the greenery that reminds you of a walk in a forest. The sight of rotting logs and vegetation that sustains and maintains the forest life. Simply magical.

You will see this barn on the left as you drive along Burgoyne Bay Road. Park your car and enjoy a favourite island hike.
