About The Artwork
Texture of Moss on Bark 2 of 2 My favourite aspect of tree hugging is feeling the bark with my hands and my face. I inhale deeply as I press my cheek against the tree. This experience of tree bark, the texture of the tree, is what I've attempted to capture in this image. I've been experimenting with texture in images, attempting to create a tactile experience that matches the visual appearance of the image. I'd love, someday, to create images that provided visually impaired people with a tactile experience of the image in my artwork, but so far I've failed to create anything that 'feels' like it 'looks'. This is one of my failed experiments. The original image from which this digital image has been scanned was created with acrylic paint and texture medium on a wood panel. The texture is sufficiently raised that when placed on the flatbed scanner the moss is in focus while the bark is slightly out of the focal plane, which gives a visual experience of texture. I hope this image inspires you to go and hug a tree and experience for yourself the texture this image attempts to convey.

Canada
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 2022 I'm expanding my offerings with paintings as well as collages and drawings.
