You Make My Art Beat

Block it up!

Come to Chinatown Craft Walk and check out our collages on blocks of wood. They are about 4” x 4” in size and varnished with thick lacquer which makes them look very funky. Their themes go well with November, a time of year which is straddling fall and winter.

Retro chics

This series of sassy ladies was inspired by images from various retro books and the bikini babe is from a vintage Playboy magazine. Women back then had voluptious bodies. Yummy! I also like incorporating whimsical text in my pieces. They all measure 7" x 8".

Lemonjellow and the month of LUV go hand in heart

Lemonjellow Productions is ramping it up this February in the LUV den in Sandy Hill. Julie LaPalme, Maya Hum, Grace Scorrar, Greta Grip, Roy Whiddon, Kim Edgar and Daniel Martelock are some of the artists who will delight your senses with eye candy.

Greta's knitting her art out so bring your smartphone to decode her knitted QR codes. Julie's painting up a storm and it's going to be raining Love Hearts. Maya's flowers will blow your mind and Grace and Daniel's love birds will probably co-mingle when we're not looking. And Roy's pipes are RED HOT!!

Gluttony

On Saturday December 3rd, Gallery 101 hosted a highly respected and anticipated event, the fourth of its seven years of the seven deadly sins - les sept péchés capitaux. So grab a plate and pig out! It's Gluttony!! A big thank you to the mystery man in the plaid shirt who bought the piece. Enjoy it!

Mini expo at Kelly's Barbershop

I hung up six pieces today at Kelly's Barbershop at 121Beechwood Ave. near the Bridgehead. They look awesome! Kellyann is so happy to have art on her walls.

Artist fetches decent bid at Hopewell Gala

Baby Charlotte made it in two silent auctions, one at the annual fashion show fundraiser for the Hopewell centre for eating disorders and at the Ashbury College fundraiser. But since baby Charlotte is already spoken for Julie says that she'll do another portrait for the mystery bidder. When asked she still hadn't received word on who had won the final bid in the auction but word had it that it was someone related to someone's rich aunt.

Commissions

I paint mostly on reclaimed wood which is good for the planet, good for me to paint on and especially good for your walls! I let the grain of the wood show through in all its glory and in all the right spots. I also paint on canvas in case that's your preference.

All I need from you is a photo or three and approximate desired size of painting. I can do big/medium/small/triptych. I have time to accept five commissions before Xmas. Book early if you want in! Otherwise I'll see you before Valentine's Day. Roses are so passé... In addition to being beautiful and funky, all of my art is affordable and ready to hang. It's a no brainer!

Don't forget to check out my other venture called Lemonjellow Productions.

The Power of the Flower

Flowers factor into my work quite a bit. While being potent symbols of sexuality, flowers evoke an array of emotional responses. My femininity comes through in an explosive fashion when I paint nature's eye candy.

Photo Collage

These are collages of children with one of their parents when they were kids. The images come from original photographs or I go fish for them on Facebook so beware what you post!

If you're interested in talking to me about creating a piece for you or as a gift for someone just drop me a line. It's very simple. You scan a bunch of photos and you e-mail them to me. I print them and I render them into a piece of art that is without equal. Photocopies via the mail is also another option.
