Here are some of my new paintings; I’m having lots of fun in the new studio with the boys.
These are all acrylic and permanent marker on canvas.
Backhoe and Octagon Pond, Looking North (both 24″x30″) are both for the landscape show on now at The Leyton Gallery in St. John’s. The zebra (12″x14″) is a gift for Scott’s niece, the most adorable thing I’ve ever seen. I mean person.
Look at all this stuff I want to report to you!
First! I donated a painting to A1C Gallery for this upcoming fundraiser:

AND
FINALLY
Werebears and Only Children has been picked up for another year in THE SCOPE, which excites me very much. As my pal Paul says, you know you’ve made it when you’re part of the refuse. I can’t wait to see more from the other winners of the contest. You can see those and a mini profile of me HERE. I will really miss PEP, though. But I hear there’s an upcoming book!
I’m also very grateful to report that I received an EVA (VANL-CARFAC) Award for Emerging Artist of the Year.
As well, I was recently one of the winners at this year’s Arts and Letters Awards, with this painting, San Diego Bush Pig. You can view the other winners HERE.
Okay! I think that’s enough news and links for one year.
