"Caws For Effect" Acrylic on Canvas 20"x24" $850.00. (Ref#352)

I am continuing to explore a romantic surrealism style in this painting that captures a magical moment I shared with this beautiful raven.  Hiking in Algonquin Park, I was resting by the shore of Peck Lake when this fellow landed within a few inches of me.  He generously allowed me to take his picture, and we had a nice talk before he flew away.

"Bird's Eye View" Acrylic on Cradle Board" 11"x14"  $500.00 (Ref #349)Currently touring Northern Ontario in the NOAA 68th Juried Show. 

This I noticed this osprey on a distant perch while visiting Huntington State Park in Myrtle Beach.  I found a spot that was close to where he ate his fish breakfast and I joined him everyday for about a week.  I took many reference pictures, despite the dirty looks he gave me as he heard my camera clicking furiously.  He didn't fly away which told me I was tolerated, and I was thankful.  I promised him a portrait for his patience, and I always keep my promises. 

"Ken's Great Grey Owl" Acrylic on Cradleboard 20"x24" $850.00 SOLD

This was a commission painted from a reference photo taken by Ken as he was going for a walk.  He says that he didn't know what made him look over his shoulder, but he was rewarded for following his intuition.  This lovely creature was sitting on a fencepost calmly watching him only a few feet away.  What a joy it was painting this gorgeous creature!

"Berry Plentiful" Acrylic on Canvas "8x8" $200 (Ref #350)

I spent 2 months in a truck camper touring Labrador/Newfoundland with my husband and doggo in the fall of 2024.  Everywhere we hiked, these bright and beautiful berries bordered the trails.  The local people called them Partridge Berries.
