A hint of what was to come. #artistinthemaking

Make a statement and stand for something you believe in.

Just a little photography magic to start your Monday. Happy sunshine Ontario peeps.

Yes! I am a designer as well as an artist. It felt good to flex those muscles again. This project was especially important to me as I stand strongly behind any little thing we can do to help protect our planet and make the future more promising for those that come after us. From animated stickers .gifs, custom logos and brand assets there are lots of fun things pulled together to make this video fun. Any purchase from this awesome shop (online of course) and you will be sent a tree sapling. Let's plant hope in 2021 - we all need it, and together we can watch hope grow.

Freshly packaged block printed towels ready for the Barntique! Note the new packaging labels. I spent half the day making them perfect! @thebarntique1 ... #handprinted #printmaker #handmadeincanada #textileart

I’ll not mention all the things that I miss as my kids grow. I will just put this here and in honour of them. #printmaking #drypoint #inaglio #canadianartist #femaleartist

Might have to try and make some bees wax wraps!

This is a house that is well loved! It shows in all the character and details that surround it. I tried to capture as many of those details as possible. #watercolourpainting #houseportrait #painting #homesweethome #brantcountyartist

I just want to note that this took my breath away. I am infatuated with clouds and the way they play with sunlight. Just stunning and it seem so relevant with the solitary sail boat.

I still get excited about the lines of exposed white paper and fine carved out details. There is something so beautiful about architectural lines. #reductionlinocut .... #printmaking #blockprinted #printisntdead #get_imprinted #printmakersofinstagram #womenprintmakers #linocut #printedbyhand #canadianart #printandpattern #getinky #art

Spent the entire day gardening in the sunshine yesterday. Moving plants and cleaning our flower beds. I even saw a few big bumble bees saying hello. It all ended with a soft rain on the steel roof outside my open bedroom window. love spring. #printmaking #blockprinted #printisntdead #get_imprinted #printmakersofinstagram #womenprintmakers #linocut #printedbyhand #canadianart #makerscollective #printandpattern #getinky #art #textiledesign #surfacepatterndesign #bee #spring

It is said that seeing a red cardinal is a sign that you need to have more confidence in yourself. It is also said that a cardinal represents the spirit form of a loved one who is checking in on you. No matter the meaning, a cardinal is always a special and welcome visitor in my yard. His stunning presence brings me a scene of comfort and peace. . . . .... . . . #kmdesignredseries #redisbest #canadianart #printmakersofinstagram #printmaking #printisntdead #inkprintrepeat #intaglio #etching #canadianartist #wallart #artist #artistoninstagram #get_imprinted #etching #artwork #justprintmaking #contemporaryart #fineart #artoftheday #ilovered See more

If you love poppies than this handy carry all bag is for you! Available in two sizes.

My favourite part or this is the subtle texture of the woodgrain that comes through. The colour pallet with the red and sky blue has a strong appeal to me as well.

Who would want a headboard that looks like this???!! Me! I would!!! I'm playing around with uses for some of my fabric patterns. I have the ability to create yardage on almost any type of fabric. PM me if you are interested to learn more - or maybe get your hands on some for your own decorating project. I will customize the colour for you! #beefabric #canadiandesign #textileart #homedecor #fabricheadboard #bee #textiles

it's all about the process. The use of watercolour on wood allowes the beautiful texture of the woodgrain to transfer as a subtle and charming feature in the final artwork. . . #poppies #whitelinewoodcut ... . #fineart #printmaker #printmaking #art #print #printmakersofinstagram #artist #reliefprint #illustration #imprinted #handprinted #printing #blockprinting #artwork #printmakingart #contemporaryart #justprintmaking #peopleofprint #canadianart See more

Just a throwback to a plate freshly carved. I am due to print this plate on some tea towels before the weekend. Please be sure to hold me accountable to that;) #fineart #printmaker #printmaking #linocut #art #print #printmakersofinstagram #artist #reliefprint #linoprint #linocutprint #blockprint #illustration #imprinted #handprinted #printing #blockprinting #artwork #printmakingart #contemporaryart #justprintmaking #ink #lino #peopleofprint #canadianart

Hi! I'm an artist. I find that hard to say sometimes but I'm getting better at it the more I practice. I work hard.... At everything I take on. With art especially I am always trying to improve. Always looking for feedback and always trying to be better, do better, and learn more. Doing art is self fulfilling but I often feel its wasteful without an audience and some conversation. THANK YOU for following along and helping me feel like at least some of what I do is worth a look and sometimes even a comment. It is hard not to pay attention to your reactions and I truly appreciate every single one of you:) #artistlife #artistsoninstagram #printmaker #creative #studioselfie #fortheloveofprint #canadianartist #makersgonnamake

This is my favourite time of year to go camping. This was taken a few years back when the kids still seemed so little compared to now. We didn’t make it this year so this photo is pulling at the heart strings more than normal. #fallcamping #arrowheadprovincialpark #childhood #sunset

A unique print. Part of a bigger reduction edition but printed on a tinted paper that made the white clouds have a different effect. Only 2 like this exist.

The warm glow of a fall harvest sunset. Trying to remember to be thankful for the little things and welcome the light where it manages to shine in. #ontariosunset #countryview #fallsky

It is a calming labour to carve a big piece. There is enough reference in the markings on the plate that there is no need for a reference image to glance at. Just me and the tools. A nice way to relax in the evening. #wip #printmaking #printmakersofinstagram #celtics #knotwork #scottish #carving
