1st Piece for Odyssey House

Here is the first piece completed for the Odyssey House art auction. Painting these has been a real emotional journey for me and something I hold very close. I am honored to be a part of such an event that not only support a great organization within my own community, but that build awareness of family violence. This piece is called "Rising above". Stay tuned for piece #2 and details of where they are at so you can go and support this amazing cause. This painting is a must see in person as it is difficult to see all the details as I only used black and metallic paint.

Mr. Peyton and his creative expression

Peyton was so fun to create with over the summer. He fell in love with using plaster and then painting over it. He was a dinosaur expert too! I hope I can paint with him again sometime! Here are a few photo's...

Update

Hey everyone!

It has been a busy summer. I had a great time guiding children to express themselves through art this summer. It was great to get to know all the children and just see how their minds work. I have lots of pictures to post, but I am still working on getting consent to do so from all the families. So stay tuned for that.

I was also buys painting my own wall mural in my bedroom. It was fun to finally do a piece for myself to enjoy only! I have posted the pictures for that today. So take a peek. I have also started building my new collection. I hope you all like. Please let me know if you are interested in any of the pieces, or if you have something that you would like commissioned.

Right now I am currently working on a few custom pieces, as well as my two donations for the Odyssey House in Grande Prairie. They will be doing their second annual silent auction art fundraiser in November. Pieces from local artists will be up for auction throughout the city. I will let everyone know where mine will be up so you all can go and place your bids. It is for such a great cause and I am thrilled to be able to be a part of it!!

Stay tuned....
