Portrait of Donna
I painted this watercolour for my mother who gave it as a gift to a good friend of hers who lost her daughter Donna in 2010.

Portrait of Donna

 

Portrait of Jan
I illustrated this portrait of my wife's Step-Mom for her 65th birthday. I can't imagine ever actually driving a riding mower with a dog sitting on top, and while playing guitar, but it's supposed to be whimsical!

Beer
I drew this glass of stout when I was working at the Olde Stone Brewing Company in Peterborough. It was used on their menu, and is visible on their web site.

Boy at Christmas
I drew this a few years back for a Christmas card. It accompanied a story about the wonder I felt as a child about Christmas, and how I would stare out the window looking for Santa Claus.

The House My Father Built
This is the house I grew up in. Note my childhood dog Dusty on the front lawn, and the car in which I learned how to drive.

Rose
On this particular valentine's day, I was too poor for real roses, so I drew one instead.

The Cast Drawings
The first in a series I called the 'cast drawings'. So named because I drew them while recuperating from a broken ankle at my parent's house in Haliburton. As the series progressed, and got increasingly more provocative, I began to realize how lonely I had become!
