HAND PAINTED PURSES

There is a possibility I will be a vendor at the Moncton Farmers Market or Dieppe Farmers Market this fall ... checking out the availability of booths at both this week ... I'll keep you posted ... my lastest creation ... hand painted purses!

MY ART DESIGN ... MARIELLE'S RUG HOOKING ... MARY BLACK GALLERY, HALIFAX, NS

This is my art design that Marielle Poirier used for a rug hooking. She submitted an application to the ART HITS THE WALL exhibit at the Mary Black Gallery in Halifax ... it was a juried selection ... and it's been accepted! We are both so excited for the upcoming vernissage on October 23rd.

FALLEN LEAVES

The natural autumn colours are so rich and forever changing ...

SAUGENAY RIVER, QUEBEC

1/4 SUNFLOWER ... SOLD

Fall is my favourite time of year ... perhaps this is why I am obsessed with sunflowers!

SMALL SUNFLOWER ... SOLD @ RESTO-MA-GI-CO, SHEDIAC

This was a very small 10 x 14 " ... very muted colours ... my colours!

RED PETALS ... SOLD @ JONELL MITCHELL'S SALON

My Parents ... "Fred et Hetty"

I was inspired to paint this image in memory of my wonderful Dad ... SOLD at Resto-Ma-Gi-Co in Shediac ... I hesitated to sell it as there is an emotional attachment here ... but I'm told never to get attached to one's own paintings ... still it was hard ... I appreciate that someone out there will get pleasure hanging this on their wall!

DANCE REHEARSAL

SOLD at Resto-Ma-Gi-Co in Shediac

CHINESE LANTERNS ... art classes with Cathy Lindfield, Dieppe, N.B.

This is one of my first paintings ... it reminds me of St. Adele, Quebec where I spent time with my family during the xmas season many years ago ... my mother has it on her wall in her retirement home! Mom was my inspiration in that she painted and enjoyed art ... it's in my blood!

My attempt at Monet's Winter Barn Scene!

SNOW COVERED TREES AT SUNSET ...

I donated this painting to my husband's office xmas fundraiser (2009). The ticket sales brought in over $250.00 which in turn was donated to Moncton Headstart Foodbank.

WINTER SCENES - ACRYLIC PAINTINGS

This is a Quebec Winter Scene ... somewhere in the Laurentians!

I have donated this painting to the RBC Silent Auction for the IWK Childrens Hospital, 2010!

I am learning an "old" art, but yet new to me ... rug hooking. My friend Marielle got me started on this fabric art and no pun intended but I'm "hooked". I'm considering joining a local "Hookers Group" in Shediac. This is work in progress as I must complete the background!
