I love mixing colour. Sometimes I just make little colour studies all day.

I've just realized how long it's been since my last post. I've been working on several things, new and old, but not really much that I want to share Some experimental things. Some ruined canvases. A lot of pieces are in the ugly duckling stage where I really have no idea where they're going. ✨ Like this one... This is a corner of a bigger canvas that makes no sense to me yet. I guess if it were easy it would be no fun.

Young, second growth forest on a hillside. I'm not sure when it was originally logged, or what might have grown here before that. Now it's a mix of hardwood, mostly maples and beech. 🌳 I'm reading Richard Powers' novel, The Overstory, which addresses our suicidal destruction of the planet's forests. It's a heartbreaking and eye-opening read that makes me wonder what in the hell is wrong with us all.

Untitled study on paper, 12" x 9" 🔹🔹🔹 Bodies of water never really stop moving, but there are moments of near calm. I'm definitely a maximalist in my art. I love detailed mark-making and lots of juxtapposition of texture and colour but I've been finding myself drawn to trying to simplify things a bit, paying mind to the quieter end of the spectrum. .

I'm in a cheerful mood today, and it brought to mind one of my older pieces: this is TRIPPING BILLIES. It' part of my FLOW series from a couple of years ago.
The inspiration for the painting came from the song by the same name by The Dave Matthews Band. The name “Tripping Billies” came to be when a band member’s girlfriend told Dave Matthews that his band sounded like “a bunch of hillbillies tripping on acid”. The band thought this was hilarious and named this song after it.
12" x 12", acrylic on canvas, available, $250CAD + shipping to anywhere on planet earth.
