Canadian Reds Hit the Slopes

Panorama Ski Resort, BC – Oil Canvas

My sister takes beautiful photographs living out west in Calgary. She recently bought a home in Invermere, and is often sending me photos of the mountains.
A part of me has always wished I lived our west, and many years ago we considered it. I think the fear of packing up five children and making such a drastic move deterred us. I must say, if given the chance again I think I’d go. There’s a feeling, an emotion that stirs within me being in the mountains. It’s always so breathtaking and each time feels like the first. I’m grateful for my family and friends that share their beauty around them with me.

Harmony

Harmony of Winter Series

Oil Canvas

As my gallery has now been opened for two weeks, I dive into my new series of paintings titled ‘Harmony Of Winter’. The first snowfall has arrived and I am immediately drawn to the beauty and magic of a fresh fallen snowy landscape. Keeping this series soft and harmonic was my theme as I feel our world needs this right now, almost like one of my mottos: “less is more”.
This was initially inspired by a photo from Whistler, whereby I did I large painting of Glacier Creek, but it soon took on its own direction — reminding me of our family trip to Whistler in 2011. Our five kids were all together skiing after my Dad had just passed and I recall taking a moment amongst the mountains and pines and spruces just taking it all in. Harmony comes to mind as being with my whole family who made everything okay. Enjoy.
