Thriving in Place is to fully live, grow and evolve right where I am. It is to honour the desire and ability to reach deep beneath the surface of all aspects of our natural world in my painting practice with revelry. I rejoice in what each day offers close to home on our small island off the southwest coast of Canada. Thriving in Place is a celebration of my everyday and the ordinary. I have enough and I am enough, today, with where I am and who I am. Methods and approaches will vary while my intention holds steady. These Thriving in Place paintings come from here and they invite you into the same practice for living.

Paintings and sketches of trees that speak of our essential connection.
