Welcome readers of the Guardian!

Welcome to my website! I’m so glad you decided to stop by. Please feel free to have a look around as long as you please! If you click the Portfolio link above, you’ll get taken to the art. Or you can continue to look around here on the studio blog – I talk about lots [...]

This pretty much sums up how I feel about life…

see more Memebase I’ve been calculating the costs of the art supplies I’ll be buying for the program in France this summer. I’m going to be spending $508 on paint alone. Which on the one hand is awesome – $500 worth of paint! Woo! Look at all the pretty colours! But also a teensy bit [...]

How one woman who swears a lot changed my life.

So I’m sure that most of you know Naomi Dunford. Ya know – that sassy lady from Ittybiz? Well today is her birthday. And in honour of her birthday, I’d like to tell you how she sort of changed my life. Let’s get in the time machine and go back 3.5 years I had just [...]

Artists for a Cure

Some people just want to change the world. Matt Leblanc is one of those people. An artist from New Brunswick, Canada (we’re practically neighbours), Matt lost his sister to cancer when she was just 5 years old. Last year, 38 years later, Matt started “Art For Life” to raise money for the Tree of Hope [...]

There shall be a short hiatus!

I am super busy with projects and planning and drawings and all sorts of good stuff, but it means that I probably won’t be posting here much over the next 10 days. Also, my sister is here until Sunday! Which is super awesome! I’ll try to post some pictures when I can – if you [...]

I decide to paint & talk – don’t try this at home, kids.

I’ve been super busy this week but really wanted to post something to the blog, so decided to make a video! I actually decided to paint and talk. Possibly not my best idea ever. I’m not even sure if there’s a point to this video at all. I sort of ramble. And by sort of, [...]

Need a website? We can help.

Just wanted to post a quiet little promotion here about the course I’m teaching with Diane next weekend. If you’ve been dreaming of a website of your own but feel intimidated by technology and all of this “online marketing” stuff and don’t have a huge budget, then this course is for you. We will help [...]

Time for a break

Jesse’s been sick with a bad cold since Sunday. It was only a matter of time before it caught up to me. Last week I worked marathon hours to finish the new site and it wiped me out. I’ve been going to bed late and getting up early. My body needs a break. So this [...]

No Internet

Unfortunately, at my new apartment I’m having major internet issues – hence the lack of posting and pictures of the new place, despite having been here a week. It looks like it’ll be Friday at the earliest before I have a reliable internet connection – right now I’m working at the library. I’ll let you [...]

10 random facts about me.

Oh my god, I think my brain is going to implode. Between Christmas and all the web design work I took on (yay monies! boo overwhelm!), I feel like I wake up every day, get absolutely nothing accomplished in a 12 hour period that goes by in the blink of an eye and then I [...]
