After such a tiresome year of continued Covid and the foreboding recoil of climate change, I really wanted to begin 2022 with a breath of fresh air amidst all our snow... a nod to nature and a reminder of what we have to lose, a look to the warmth of the upcoming spring and, hopefully, the turning over of a new leaf!   I always look forward to this Rhododendron, Percy Wiseman;  its buds appear confidently pink, and as they open, they reveal a blush of creamy yellow, amidst softening pinks.  Once each flower is completely open, the petals are a soft white, with hits of antique pinks, salmons and French cream!  Such a delicate plant, abundant with flowers every year... and one of my favourites in the garden.  Throughout each flower's lifespan it exhibits a slow and steady change, something we all need to mirror in order to break the ominous direction in which our planet is heading.

Flattering quotes from my Patrons!
"To me the true test of art is the ones that draw you in and keep you coming back for a more discerning look. . ."   Chris

". . . and if I did not make it very clear, I think your work is transcendent.   Very very wondrous and I hope to see you again someday.   You are not only gifted, you are a gift to all!"    James

"Without a doubt, the Rug Merchant is one of the most beautiful pieces I've ever seen"    Pat

"Your  paintings are a love letter to the Universe!"   Unknown gentleman

. . .  just sitting in the Living Room with a glass of wine and enjoying looking at [our batik].  We so love it!  It makes me think & feel summer!  I would very much like to scramble across those rocks and lay out at the far end near the water in the sunshine for awhile like a seal!   Then have a picnic under the Garry Oak in the shadows!"    Bob

"I admired your paintings at the Sidney Fine Arts Show.   They are beautiful in colour, detail and light."    Gisele
