I was born in Ontario so have always had a soft spot for the outdoors here in my own backyard. The black lakes, the smell of warm pine needles on the forest floor, the colourful mushrooms peeking up. And closer to the city, I love the country roads, the rolling farms rimmed with hundred year old trees, the wildflowers that persist in growing anywhere they can. There’ s a lot of beauty here when you escape the big city, and I enjoy painting it.
Often painted en-plein-air, these are ane-of-a-kind pieces. They are not reproduced or available as prints, which I think makes it more special knowing when you bring a painting home, it really is unique and not mass produced.
All prices are in Canadian $. HST and shipping to be calculated. Please contact me to arrange purchase… my prices are always best directly through me. I have SQUARE set up for secure online transactions.

Ontario farms
Art at Andrews Scenic Acres, Milton ON
I have a soft spot for the farmlands in Ontario, and enjoy painting seasonal landscapes and produce. My work can be found in the scotch block winery at Andrews Scenic Acres in Milton, Ontario. (Psst… I have my paintings at their BEST prices at this location, less than my Etsy shop, shhhh!)
The studies have all been framed in reclaimed barn wood locally sourced within Ontario.
