Today is my last day living on Prince Edward Island. Early tomorrow morning, I’ll get in my 14ft Uhaul cube van and together with my boyfriend and his dad, we’ll drive our stuff the 2000km back to Niagara, Ontario where we’re originally from to store what’s left of our belongings with our parents before heading [...]

The one that I saved.
November 24, 2011 – 2:40 pm
Over 18 months ago, I took 6 paintings in to my gallerist. She sent 4 of them back with them, declaring them unfit to be seen, and most definitely unfit to be sold. I was devastated. I was proud of the work, and couldn’t understand why she’d been so upset. She’d hated them. In a [...]

One year on my own.
July 26, 2010 – 2:28 pm
I arrived on Prince Edward Island exactly one year ago today. One whole year. I can’t believe it. Can you believe it? Where the heck did the past year go? I feel like it’s been 6 months, at most. Not a whole year. I can’t believe it’s gone so fast. I just re-read my first [...]
A painting bonanza!
May 4, 2010 – 3:54 pm
I am so tired, I’m about to fall over. I’m barely stringing together coherent sentences anymore. But I did it. The 6 paintings are finished and delivered to the Pilar Shephard Gallery. And for your enjoyment, here they are: Most of these titles were made up while I [...]
The new apartment!
July 29, 2009 – 9:05 am
I am so totally in lurve with my new apartment. I’m pretty sure it’s actually heaven. It’s perfect for me and Jesse and we’ve already turned it into our home in a matter of days. Although admittedly, I’ve gotta sort out the overwhelming mound of clothes in the closet. What can I say? I’m a [...]
New beginnings
July 28, 2009 – 9:33 am
I don’t even know where to start. It’s been so long since I’ve written anything that my blogging voice is kinda lost, ya know? So much has happened the past few days. I’m completely bone tired at this point. My current plan is to just sleep for days. We made to Prince Edward Island all [...]
T-minus 40 Days: Anyone else feeling Biblical?
June 8, 2009 – 11:13 am
Forty days from today, I get in a car, and move 1800 kms to Prince Edward Island. Forty days to finish 12 paintings, 2 websites, and one tattoo drawing. It feels kind of Biblical ya know? Maybe I’ll change my name to Eve, or Mary or something. Judith perhaps. Judith was always one of my [...]
Apparently I'm making the worst decision of my life
May 27, 2009 – 9:03 am
Disclaimer: None of the following rant refers to, in any way, shape, or form, anyone I’ve ever “met” online. This is purely a rant against “real life” people. All I’m asking for is just a teensy, itty bitty little bit of support. Not a lot. Just a bit. If for once in my life, I [...]
Ch-ch-ch-changes
May 13, 2009 – 10:45 am
The last 12 hours have been insane. It’s like life has been sitting around, in this holding position for weeks, months even, and now all of a sudden, it’s moving and moving quickly. I actually had to walk away from writing this half way through because I needed an hour or so to just calm [...]
