ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Canada Goose This is a digital image created from an analogue source, this goose shape has been cut from a piece of paper, behind which a dropcloth style abstract painting provides colour to the silhouetted form of a Canada Goose. Turning towards you to assert itself... Canadians are polite, our geese may not be! The series includes a variety of west coast and Canadian wildlife, and most creatures are presented in both negative and positive space versions, and facing in both directions. The 'dropcloth' background is made from the sheets of paper I cover my work surface with, and they start out as a literal drop cloth to catch the paint that spills, drips and runs off other things I paint. The use of bubble wrap for monoprinting (like a stamp) is intended as a visual reminder of the ecological dangers that plastic presents to wildlife. The Canada goose is native to the northern hemisphere and migratory, so they are a familiar sight in many places, and I think Canadians have a healthy respect for this sizeable and assertive bird. If you treat them with the same respect you would a bear, you won't discover how belligerent they can be.

Born in Toronto Ontario, I'm now fortunate enough to live on the west coast of Canada, and I'm completely in love with the natural environment around me. While my art is seldom a literal representation of my landscape, the natural world I walk through informs the textures, lines and colours in my work. I'm presenting a series of animal silhouette images, of Canadian wildlife, mostly west coast creatures, including Elk, Bear, Orca, Starfish, Deer, Bison, Beaver, Salmon and Cod. This series of silhouettes will be developed in a variety of medium, the 'Dropcloth' series uses backgrounds created using the paper that covers my work surface when I paint, and the 'Maps' series uses old paper maps used for motorcycle touring in Canada. The Pen and Ink series explores using black lines to define positive and negative space of animal silhouettes, by using lines represent textures of plants and also to outline the shapes of animals. The animal silhouette series has expanded to include trees and clouds, so the creatures have an environment. In 2024 I'm expanding my offerings with paintings as well as collages and drawings.
