New work from 2012

"The Back Door to Heathers Cottage"
24"x 18"
This is a painting of an old Antique door up at my cousins cottage. I chose to concentrate mainly on the handle, as I wondered just how many times this door has opened and family and friends have been invited in.
Available for Purchase.

"Autumn Reverie"
20" x 16" Acrylic on Canvas.
This is another version of the view from my Sisters bathroom window, I have painted this vista 5 times!
This painting has been SOLD, but I recently just finished another version!

"Waiting to See Inside"
20"x 16" Acrylic on Canvas
I have passed this store front many times over the years, but the gift shop business that was there has been long gone. I always wondered though what kind of treasures may have been waiting inside.
This painting has been SOLD, Private collection.

"Opening Up to A New Day"
24"x 18" Acrylic on Canvas
Once again my favourite Red door theme has been used for this painting!
This painting has been SOLD, Private Collection

"Looking Through Great Grammy Byrne's Window"
20"x 16" Acrylic on Canvas
This painting was inspired by some old windows that I have that belonged to My Great Grandmother. They were actually the doors from a china cabinet, that is long gone. I have one hanging in front of my kitchen, and look out through it everyday, several times. I changed the design a bit, but the inspiration from the view is wonderful.
This Painting is available for purchase.

"Yellow Velvet Chair"
20' x 16" Acrylic on Canvas
Lot's of colour!
This painting has been SOLD, Private collection.

"The Stairs from the Front Hall"
24"x18" Acrylic on Canvas.
Continuing my stairways and doorway theme.
This painting has been SOLD, Private Collection.

"Red Geraniums"
20" x 16" Acrylic on Canvas
One of my favourite colours, RED!
This painting has been SOLD, Private Collection.

"The Stairs to the Third Floor"
24" x 18" Acrylic on Canvas
I love the way the light comes in through the window in this painting.
It is available for purchase.

"Stained Glass"
24" x 18" Acrylic on Canvas
This is a painting for a window from St.George Church, out on one of the country roads close to my home. I have since re-worked it a bit and added some vines climbing up and around the one side of the window. After living with it for a few months on my wall, I decided it needed something....I will post the new photo of it shortly.
It is available for purchase.

Reflections Behind the Birch Trees

Pink Magnolias and the Blue Door

This old doorway has been and inspiration for me as I've driven past it for years, and every spring this incredible Magnolia tree bursts open with these huge pink blossoms. Like the painting "Wisteria Doorway" that I did, this is also one of my favourite images. When the tree is blooming, it is almost impossible to see the front door, or much of the front of the house. Every spring I wait for this tree to bloom, because I know that there's no turning back, spring has arrived! This painting is acrylic on canvas, 16" x 20", and has been SOLD,Private collection.

Lavender Cottage

The World outside my Door

This Painting was a joy to paint. I love the open doors leading to the woods out back, I love the colours, and most of all I love the calico cat. I had a lovely (large, about 18lbs) calico cat for many years, named Maddy. She was very sweet and very shy, and would often just sit at our back door watching the world go by. Occasionaly she would venture out, but never very far, and never for very long, but when she did, she loved to lie in the sun. This painting is 16" X 20", acrylic on canvas, and has been SOLD, private collection.

Let the Colour Inside

This painting is of the view from my sister's bathroom window! I have painted 3 different paintings of this scene and this is the third version. She and her family,live in a wonderful old farmhouse in Eastern Ontario, and much like my old home, there is inspiration for paintings everywhere! She took a photo of this scene last fall when she was planning on re-painting the window frame, and when she showed it to me, I fell in love with it. It is 18" x 24" ", acrylic on canvas, and has been SOLD/Private collection.

The Light Inside

I love this painting for alot of reasons. I love it because of the mix of red colours that I used, and how the open door invites the viewer inside. The gold/brown colours inside the house give off a feeling of warmth. The black and white cat is also special to me as we had a sweet little cat named Charlie for 20 years who greeted everyone at our door. This painting is currently part of a group show at the Art Gallery of Hamilton, and will be on display there until March 22nd, 2009. It is 14" x 20", acrylic on canvas, and has been SOLD, private collection.

October Wolf

This is a painting that I did loosely based on one of my dogs as a model. She is actually a beautiful large German Shepherd, and although she does have some silver and tan markings, her face is completely black. I have had so many people stop me over the years, and ask me me if she is a wolf, partly because of her size and long legs and because of her markings. I love fall colours, and we do so much walking in the woods with our dogs, and because she is so dark, I thought these colours would create a dramatic painting.This painting is actually not for sale, as one of my sons fell in love with it, and it is hanging in his room.
