Timeraiser

Two of my paintings (Westdale Theatre and Westdale Clock) have been selected to be auctioned off at Hamilton's Timeraiser this March.
Timeraiser events are held annually in Hamilton, Toronto, Vancouver, Ottawa and Calgary. Attendees of the evening have the opportunity to bid on local art works using time instead of money. If you've ever thought about volunteering in the community, here's your kick in the pants. Timeraiser is an awesome way to find out about local volunteer opportunities and pick up some art without emptying your pockets.

Cowgirl in the Sand

I'm taking a leather tooling course at Tundra Leather right now. Peter Grove teaches it, which means I'm getting top dog instruction--Peter has been tooling for something like 40 years and is a pretty prominent leather worker in Canada.
Hopefully, by May, I'll be good enough at this to be selling bracelets, wallets, belts, earrings, guitar straps, pick guards and more. New news on markets and spring things to come...
Here are a few starter pieces...
