Distant Dreams

Our art is our dream, and in this dream we often dwell on our thoughts. Our dreams are possibilities of things to come, records of what is now, or distant memories of things that once were. I hope that when this child grows up the beautiful natural world that we live in is not some distant dream for her.




Distant Dreams: Transparent Watercolour 20.5 by 26 inches

I had a lot of fun with this one playing with the idea of double exposure to capture her thoughts and concerns visually.

Visions Adjoin

'The Little Girl with the Curl' is currently hanging in the Joint National Watercolor Society/ Canadian Society of Painters in Watercolour 'Visions Adjoin' exhibition in California US. As both a signature member of NWS and an Elected member of CSPWC it is an honour to be selected to be part of this exhibition.



For those of you who are unable to see the exhibition in person in the US or can't wait until it comes to Canada later this year, here is an online view of the paintings.

Thank you to all the people of NWS and CSPWC for making this exhibition happen.
