I love to paint bright, colourful, folksy artwork. Working with acrylics, I experiment with a variety of sizes and substrates. Check out the about page to learn where my work has been shown, or visit The Violet Shop to purchase original artwork, products and prints! To view older works, check out the folk art archive.

THE VIOLET SHOP:

Artwork, Prints and Things

You’ll find zipper pouches, scarves, mugs, accessories and apparel—some made by me, some designed by me and produced with Canadian print-on-demand partners. Some will only be around for a good time, not a long time, so it’s worth taking a peek every now and then.

PROJECT:

10x10x52 Series

In 2014 I painted a 10×10 canvas every week for 52 weeks. The complete series was exhibited at Casa in April 2015, surrounded by an amazing community of people who helped make the project possible. A huge thank-you to everyone who supported the project, including friends, family, the Heritage Ladies League, our local sponsors, and every sweet person who came out to see the work. Here are a few paintings from the series:
