There are so many beautiful beaches hidden all over Lake Windermere. You just have to find them! This is a special spot on the water looking across the lake and up at the Purcell Mountains. Can you spot the stags head up on the mountain? Local legend is that winter is officially over when the stags head in completley clear of snow.

The amazing view from the Old Coach Trails overlooking the Columbia River Wetlands! Every single time (and I actually mean every SINGLE time) we go for a bike ride along this trail I have to stop and take a photo. I just have too!!! This beautiful scene was taken in the early spring before the winter run off over filled the wetlands. The day I stood looking out at this view I knew I wanted to paint a great big side by side double painting. It was defintely a ‘huge’ challenge but I loved it. I am totally in love with this painting!

There are so many things to see when you take a paddle down the Columbia River between Invermere and Radium – birds, animals, and even trains!

This summer I will be showing my newest collection of paintings at Pynelogs Art Gallery in Invermere, BC. They are all inspired by the beauty of the Columbia Valley, from Radium Hot Springs to Fairmont Hot Springs and all the little gems in between. If you are in the area, please stop by and see the new paintings! I would love to hear what you think! They will be at Pynelogs Art Gallery from August 3rd to August 22nd.
Happy One Year Anniversary to a couple of super sweet newlyweds! My client commissioned this painting as an anniversary gift for her new husband. Last year during the height of the Covid craziness they celebrated their wedding together in Jasper! What a beautiful way to remember their special day.

A new painting for a very special couple on their 25th Wedding Anniversary! Congratulations Ed and Michelle! And Thank You for this super fun commission!
This paint is a view of the mountains and foothills from the Springbank, Alberta. Anyone who lives along the foothills of the Rocky Mountains know the sky can be easy entertainment as it’s always putting on a show! *An edge view of the painting to show how I wrap my painting image around the edges and pay special attention to the finish.

A fun day train spotting with one of my favourite adventure buddies this past winter inspired this painting. A summer view of Morant’s Curve (because who really wants anymore winter right now?). Thank you so much for the commission Chrystal and Brent – hope you enjoy it! Morant’s Curve ~ 10″x20″ Acrylic On Gallery Wrapped Canvas
Commission Delivery Day – Always very exciting for me! I love this painting and the way the fog is coming off the river and the trees are silhouetted in the shadows. It was challenging (which is why I LOVE doing commissions) and it was a a lot of fun to paint! Castle Mountain is one of my favourite mountains, it is so grand and impressive – I love how it is rising up out of the fog in this painting.

A new painting! Actually, it’s a great BIG new painting! Late last summer after a great day of hiking, we were on our way home and came upon a very empty highway and this gorgeous view! It is so unusual for the Kananaskis Highway 40 to be deserted and especially this past summer! Lucky for us we were able to pull over to get some super cool shots of the highway and Mount Kidd. It was the whipped cream and cherry on top of an already awesome day!

Well, Some outhouses are just in the prettiest places aren’t they? A fun little painting to help celebrate one on my hiking buddy’s birthday! Plain of Six Glaciers in Banff National Park, a great hike near Lake Louise, Alberta. Can you guess how they empty these outhouses way out in the backcountry?
