Commissions
Commissioned work is gladly welcomed, as well as re-paints of work I've already done. Typically it takes me 2-3 months to complete a painting. I have the buyer pay for the canvas and half up front and half upon delivery. Shipping is the buyers responsibility. Surprisingly shipping is not all that expensive, for example a 2' x 4' piece was only $100 to have shipped to Ontario from Nelson BC.
My paintings range from $500 - $3500 depending on size and subject.
For example if you would like something similar to my previous work it would be more affordable than uncharted territory for my painting style.

Garage Door Mural
Spring 2025 for Bob Henderson Handmade Boots workshop.
Instead of looking at a white garage door, Bob wanted an expansive painting that reminded him of the western music he loves so much. His shop feels more alive with a view behind his sewing machines. A treat to create a view for him to look out on, something warm in his garage turned workshop. This was done in acrylic paints, paints i would use on a canvas, it turned out so rich and detailed. I would love to create something like this again.

Olsen's Cabin
Completed Oct. 2021, This was a mash up of sunset images and their actual property. A wonderful to snip together images I like and a place i grew up fishing in front of. Its an absolutely gorgeous spot on Rainy lake, and our closest Cabin neighbors growing up.

Kindred.
My Auntie Anne wanted a floral piece and here it is! I called it Kindred as my aunt and i are kindred spirits, our love of beauty stems deep and we treasure the finer things in life with keen eyes on the natural world and light reflecting on its surfaces.
Prints are available in my shop prints section.

Sailing on West Hawk
She wanted something sentimental for her sail boating dad. We talked about painting her cabin, but from a distance all we could really see was the outline of the windows and roof on a island/mainland of boreal forest. I suggested just painting any island from the area, with a sailboat and we came up with this.

Rainy Lake commission
My cousin wanted a piece of art from me, and I decided to try a hazy early morning on the lake image. It is no place in particular, just a mash up of my memories from the lake. I learned a lot with this and trying this colouring for the 1st time. Capturing the light is so tough! I was nice to have as much freedom as possible for this one.
This piece is 2' x 4' in size and was done in acrylic.
