"Sun Shower" Lately I've been looking at old family photos (on slides with a viewfinder.) It's been taking me back! How do you connect with your joyful memories and moments? #torontoartist #torontoart ... #artistsoninstagram #artoninstagram #abstract #abstractpainting #abstractedfigure #originalart #limitedpalette #intuitive #intuitiveart #humanconnection #humanconnections #interconnection #connections #family #togetherness #memories #contemporaryart #contemporarypainting #expressiveart #intuitiveart See more

"Reflections" Is there a group you like to reflect with, or do you find it a more solitary process? Right now I'm reflecting on my people. Happy weekend to you and yours! #torontoartist #torontoart #artistsoninstagram #artoninstagram #abstractpainting #abstractedfigure #abstractfigures #originalart #intuitive #intuitiveart #humanconnection #humanconnections #interconnection #connections #contemporaryart #contemporarypainting #expressiveart #intuitiveart

"First Day" Finger painting with oils today to stay close to joyful,contactful memories. I'm so grateful to have a batch of old family photos as source material for figurative work, thanks to my gorgeous nephew Ol. Thank you, thank you! ... #torontoartist #torontoart #artistsoninstagram #artoninstagram #abstractedfigure #originalart #intuitive #intuitiveart #humanconnection #humanconnections #interconnection #connections #contemporaryart #contemporarypainting #expressiveart #intuitiveart See more

Bridging the Pacific III The third and final in this oil and coldwax series of three about staying close despite distance. I'm excited to have this series in the Leslieville gallery show, starting today!

'Depth without Borders' At this time of year I'm struck by the depth of closeness I feel to those I love, even across oceans. #torontoartist #torontoart # artistsoninstagram #artoninstagram #abstract #abstractpainting #abstractedfigure #originalart #watermedia #limitedpalette #intuitive #intuitiveart #humanconnection #humanconnections #interconnection #connections #contemporaryart #contemporarypainting #expressiveart #intuitiveart

Bridging the Pacific II Another in the experimental series about distance with closeness - connecting with our special people across vast space. Aren't we fortunate to have ways to stay connected, so as to support one another? #torontoartist #torontoart ... #artistsoninstagram #artoninstagram #artist #painter #studio #contemporaryart #abstract #abstractpainting #originalart #limitedpalette #intuitive #intuitiveart #humanconnection #humanconnections #interconnection #connections #contemporaryart #contemporarypainting #expressiveart#intuitiveart#oilpainting #oilandcoldwax See more

'Navigating the Layers' Water media on Fabriano I always have an idea in mind when I paint, but I like to leave space for you to make your own meaning. Just like reading clouds...tell me what you see? I always find it interesting ... #torontoartist #torontoart #canadaart #collection #artistsoninstagram #artoninstagram #abstract #abstractart #abstractartist #watermedia #limitedpalette #intuitive #intuitiveart #humanconnection #humanconnections #interconnection #interconnected #connections #contemporaryart #contemporarypainting #expressiveart

"Bridging the Pacific-1" I'm having fun making an experimental abstract series on the concept of distant closeness. This is the first, hot off the press, that explores the idea of connecting with loved ones across vast space and yet feeling supported. This is especially pertinent given the global situation. Let's stay close. Have a contactful Monday everyone. #torontoartist #torontoart # artistsoninstagram #artoninstagram #abstract #abstractpainting #artist #studio #painter #originalart #limitedpalette #intuitive #intuitiveart #humanconnection #humanconnections #interconnection #connections #contemporaryart #contemporarypainting #expressiveart #intuitiveart

'Beyond Shallow' Watermedia While I was painting this, I was thinking about how getting close to someone requires trust and consistency. And that deep contacts are well worth the effort ... #torontoartist #torontoart #artistsoninstagram #artoninstagram #abstract #abstractart #abstractpainting #abstractartist #originalart #watermedia #limitedpalette #intuitiveart #intuitive #humanconnections #humanconnection #connections #interconnection #interconnected #contemporaryart #contemporarypainting #expressiveart

'With One Voice' Ink, charcoal and oil This is another part of the experimental drawing series. Drawing is my best friend; it's a foundation to help prepare my headspace, loosen up and work out priorities. What does this remind you of?...

'Throughline' Ink and graphite Part of a series of exerimental drawings. I like to ponder on a word or phrase that has in some way moved me. I put my rational brain in the back seat and follow my intuition. Sometimes what comes up is a surprise or a fright. Sometimes even funny or strange. Our intuition is mysterious. It's fun being open to whatever happens. What word pops into your head when you look at this? ... #torontoartist #torontoart #artistsoninstagram #artoninstagram ##abstract #abstractart #abstractartist #abstractdrawing #ink #graphite #charcoal #intuitive #intuitiveart #rightbrain #humanconnection #humanconnections #interconnection #connections #expressiveart #expression #poetry #music
