Musical Creation

A special commission for a client, taking a beloved acoustic guitar and giving it some love with Intuitive Painting.
Witness the transformation…

Trent University Commission

In May, I was approached by Trent University  to create a large scale piece for their recently renovated student health centre. This mixed media piece was inspired by the serene landscape of the campus and its known association with nature, which has been a great influence in my work.
The Trent University campus has always been an inspiring environment to me. The way the unique architecture harmonizes with nature and to have a river flowing directly through the campus, its surreal. Its beautiful to see how we can embrace nature for all its beauty.

Artsweek SHIFT Grant

In the Spring of 2021, I applied for an artist grant through EC3’s event Artsweek Shift 2 and was successful in my endeavours!
I am so extremely happy and proud to receive this grant, it means the world to me. It also means I will be able to take my printmaking even further.

Part of my grant application consisted on being able to further develop my skills, work with some not for profits to help raise funds through art projects, working with local businesses to create promotional materials and creating more greeting card designs.

After my first attempt with fondant with my ice cr After my first attempt with fondant with my ice cream cone cake, I was craving for another opportunity to explore this new medium.
During last week for engagement week (what most of us know as reading week), I used this as an opportunity to create a vintage halloween themed cake with fondant...and of course being someone who likes to take things even further, experimented with painting sugar cookies to compliment the theme as well.

Many mistakes were made, many good lessons learned and I absolutely loved the experience. I am a firm believer in getting in there and trying new things, that we learn best from our failures and trial and error.

I present you my vintage halloween cake and cookies <3

One of our assignments this week was to work with One of our assignments this week was to work with fondant and rice krispie treats to make a cake topper.
The original theme was to be a bear figure, but with Halloween around the corner and my niece loving kitties, I had to do something different. After all, when have I ever followed rules or guidelines :P

This is my vintage, cartoon inspired halloween kitty.
The main form being rice krispies ,which is then draped in fondant and embellishments. Complete with some finishing touches of food safe painting. 

I do believe I just found a new beloved medium to explore!
Now I know this isn't new or groundbreaking, however to me it is :P
I had no idea you can mix various edible items together and literally paint with them!
Oh the possibilities that have now opened up to me...

Behind the scenes of start to finish for my latest Behind the scenes of start to finish for my latest cake adventure.

Another cake for school and another first for me 😉
This ice cream cone cake is made from Oreo cake, Swiss meringue buttercream and lots of fondant and gum paste.
This is my first time doing a shaped cake and covering a cake in fondant. Sooo much trial and error for this project and so much learned. Fondant is definitely a whole medium in its own and is quite a new thing for me to understand.
Looking forward to the next one :)

What would YOU like to see turned into fondant cake?

Soooo many lessons were learned and I’m looking forward to trying this again. 
Went for a more gothic beauty and the beast vibe for this theme of practicing roses. Would love to experiment with some deep blues and violets next time 😉

Any guess as to what food ingredient I am holding? Any guess as to what food ingredient I am holding?
Truth be told, I never really knew about it until this Summer when I needed it for a recipe.
Thankfully @themainingredientptbo has such a wonderful selection and variety of items, I was able to find it there.

Curious to see if everyone knows automatically and if I’ve just been very sheltered from pantry ingredients all my life 🤣
Tag someone and see if they may know too 😉

Absolutely beautiful day to explore @sirsamsskirid Absolutely beautiful day to explore @sirsamsskiride trails and take in the views!
We didn’t plan ahead when it came to packing food and after seeing the great picnic table spots they had, we knew what to do! We went down the road to @abbey_gardens and @eaglelakecountrymarketon and grabbed some of our favourite items. Brought everything back up to the picnic tables and had a lovely meal!

We explored the trails, took in the sights and spotted some beautiful creatures, two deer, a garter snake and a little frog. Oh and dozens upon dozens of dragonflies. Now that was a magical moment!

Absolutely amazing pizza by @piesbyzach! First tim Absolutely amazing pizza by @piesbyzach!
First time trying these beauties and are now devoted fans! The crust is exceptional and full of flavour, with a nice chewy texture. The sauce has just the right zing to it and you can truly taste the fresh tomatoes.
Basil pesto and cheese are beautifully done too!
Honestly cannot say enough about how well done this pizza is and how kind and sincere the service is.

Thanks @piesbyzach for such a lovely experience, we will def be back!
Love seeing passion like this🙌🏻

Acrylics have always been my first love with mediums. Their endless possibilities and ability to continue exploring new techniques makes my heart full. Especially when I see my fingers and toes at the end of the day, covered in various colours. 
Yes, you read that correctly. 🤣 I did say toes! I’m a bit of a messy painter 😄 

Starting to explore underpainting techniques and play more with colour theory. Really enjoying such too! 
This specific painting is the first in my underpainting series and was such a delight to create again and actually feel all the art emotions. 
I’ve missed my creative world and so thankful to be in it again!

For ptbo locals, porch pickup is an option. And for those a bit further away, I am happy to mail this painting, which will come with shipping costs.

Thank you for reading and allowing me to share my creative world with you ❤️
