Where do you find inspiration? Do you paint from photographs?
I normally only paint what I have personally experienced – whether it be from Plein Air adventuring or from photographing a subject that speaks to me. My work is based upon my own observations and natural curiosity.
I often will reference a number of my own images when designing and creating a painting.
How long does it take to create a painting?
Paintings are created in stages. Often my work has to dry for several days between the layers. I normally have several pieces in various stages and alternate which ones I work on. Typically it may take me from a month to five months to complete a painting.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes. Payment plans are a great option to acquire original artwork within a set budget. We can work together create a payment schedule to enable you to purchase your painting over 3 to 6 months – whatever makes sense to you. Payments are non-refundable.
Shipping Options?
I am so excited that you are considering purchasing my artwork. As shipping prices are ever changing and vary with size, location and providers, I am unable to include shipping rates on my website. If you are located beyond southern New Brunswick, please contact me here and I will secure quotes and send the shipping options to you. Shipping rates are based on size, weight, cost of the crate and packaging materials. Artwork shipped outside of Canada may be subject to additional fees such as, duties, brokerage, taxes or tariffs that are imposed by the carrier. Any additional fees are NOT included in the purchase price and are the responsibility of the purchaser. Standard shipping rates do not include any insurance beyond a minimal amount. Additional insurance is the responsibility of the purchaser. Once you have selected your preferred shipping method we will work together to make arrangements for payment.
Please allow up to 14 days to ship an original artwork (crate may have to be built). I’ll sent you an email with tracking information when your order ships.

Giclee Reproductions?
Giclees are printed using water based inks and are available on three non toxic high quality materials and may be printed on either flat or stretched canvas or on specialty papers.
I offer prints of only a select few paintings. My original paintings have been photographed to ensure reproduction accuracy is high quality and as close to the original as possible.
