Painting Memories

How is it that a piece of art can bring us back to those special places and times in our lives?

Whether a new home, family cottage, favourite holiday destination, cherished pet, or even the most beautiful sunset from your front door, a painting can uniquely capture and echo those memories.

Take a moment to check out some of the paintings I’ve made for past customers and the stories behind them. I’d love to connect with you and chat about a painting!

What do you want to remember?

  • Watercolour painting of dog bounding through snow.

    Lick of approval!

    First time running through the snow for this sweet dog! This 5x7 inch watercolour painting perfectly captures this dog’s happy spirit.

  • Front view of cedar-shingle house.

    St. Andrew's by the Sea, New Brunswick

    So much history and memories made in this 200 year old home by the Bay of Fundy.

  • Watercolour painting of a cat.

    Furry friend

    This pet cat was painted in watercolour as a surprise birthday gift which brought a smile to the owner’s face.

    4x6 inch watercolour.

  • Snug Harbour Sunset

    The sun sets over Snug Harbour Lighthouse on Georgian Bay, Canada. Brings back memories of coming back for a yummy fish dinner at the local restaurant too!

    24x48 inch acrylic on gallery canvas.

  • Painting of female black bear crossing a two-lane highway followed by three small bear cubs.

    Keeping up with mama

    This client was lucky enough to come upon a mama bear crossing the road with her three cubs in British Columbia, Canada. From a blurry cell phone picture came this watercolour painting to capture the moment!

    11x14 inch watercolour.

  • Watercolour painting of cottage with firepit in foreground.

    The family cottage, Kawarthas

    This cottage sits on Eel Lake in the Kawarthas. The firepit by the lake is the quintessential Canadian cottage experience - I had to include it in the painting. Now for some s’mores…

    8x10 inch watercolour.

  • Watercolour painting of school with trees in foreground.

    School's out for summer.

    A token of appreciation for the “top gun” of school principals at the end of the year. As he would say, “Go Jets!” Cue the exit music….

    8x10 inch watercolour.

  • A dog looks up, standing in front of the water.

    Those dog days of summer

    A very special memory of a beautiful day by the lake for this sweet dog and her humans. Those eyebrows…

    8x10 inch watercolour.

  • Watercolour painting of farm field with two cows in the foreground.

    Field Sparrow Farms, Bobcaygeon

    Portrait of the back pasture of a family farm near Bobcaygeon in the Kawartha Lakes, Canada. I loved painting this little snippet of farm life for a wonderful family.

    8x10 inch watercolour.

  • Watercolour painting of two story home with flag pole in front yard.

    We'll call her "Moira."

    Portrait of house for first-time homeowners, in the lovely Kawarthas. Let’s call her Moira.

    9x12 inch watercolour.

  • Joy

    Taffy the dog looks so happy here. Those ears have their own personality!
