Painting

I am not committed to one type of painting or the use of only one material so I find, more & more, I am incorporating collage into my paintings.  Traditionally I use acrylic paints because I find a lot of freedom in them.  Here are a few of a series of small dress mixed media painting I did a couple years ago.  I like them so much I hope to go back to them and explore them further.

 

I am teaching an Art Explorations for the Absolute Beginner class for adult through Island Blue that will feature some painting, as well as illustration, sculpture and printmaking.  The class runs Thursdays April 12- May 31 9am – 11:30 am.

Illustration

I have always tended to go to the more “cartoon-y” type of drawing.  I think it is the child-like elements I am drawn to as well as the influence of Japanese characters.

Here are a few of my “little people”, a series of childrens’ work I am currently creating.

    

Kids Classes

Upcoming kids classes that I am teaching are as follows:

Art Adventures (ages 8-11) Saturdays 9am – 11am at Island Blue Print.

Baby Picasso (ages 2-3) Mondays 10am – 11:15 am at the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria.

Toddler Art (ages 2-4) Wednesdays 9:15am – 10:15 am at Oaklands Community Centre.

Here are a few examples of kids artwork from the past year.  They are generally age 5-6 years of age in these examples.

 

Mosaics

Here is a sample of some mosaics I have done in the past few years.  I teach mosaic classes often at Island Blue in Victoria BC.  You can check their website here for information on current and upcoming classes.  My next mosaic classes are Saturday March 31st 12 pm – 4 pm and April 21st 1 – 5.
