Updated October 7, 2001 Work from the year 2001
This page contains many images and will take a while to completely download. Please be patient.
What's coming up
My new work is usually geared toward an upcoming exhibition. I am currently preparing for "Victory", an exhibition of new works on canvas at the Hull Casino, Hull, Quebec. In November I will be setting up an exhibition at the Ottawa International Airport.
Victoire
Acrylic on canvas 48" X 60" (122 cm X 152 cm)
What Inspires me
My paintings are almost always done from imagination. I am always happy to discuss their origins. I have many influences - my location (see the page My Studio), what I have been reading, what I have been watching, and where I have traveled.
Recently I spent some time in Andalucia, Spain, long enough to become familiar with the music,
the food,
the language and in a way, the culture.
I have always been fascinated by Flamenco
and the Bull Fights
and of course
the art.
There was a reverence to be in the room where Picasso was born
and to relax in the square where he played as a child.
I was surprised and impressed by the Arabic influence -
in the architecture, the music, the food and the language.
The devotion of the confradias in their Holy
Week processions impressed me,
as did the festival going on outside of the processions.
¡Olé!
On this page I will post the most recent works that I
am preparing.
While right now I'm working on paintings for "Victory", some other
paintings also come out.

Most of the following works were for the Pontiac Artists' Studio Tour.
I hope you enjoy them here.
Come and see the finished works.
The Tour
is an opportunity to display a collection of works of different sizes,
subjects and media.
Since I am not working to a particular theme, these
works are created in an atmosphere of spontaneity and freedom.
For me this is a major exhibition,
since not only are my paintings on display, but my house and studio as
well.
