Unfortunately my solo show at the Armstrong Gallery will not be going ahead since the gallery is not reopening in 2020 due to Covid 19,

This show will therefore be on display at Picture This Framing and Gallery

as well as online July 10, 2020

When The Pie Was Opened

Titled after the nursery rhyme, "Sing a Song of Sixpence", this body of 'four and twenty' paintings has been created to celebrate birds with playful, original compositions.

My first piece in this series, "Balancing Act" was what opened the 'pie' for me. Five ravens, one on top of the other, tied together my previous journey painting totem poles of the west coast, to where I am headed artistically presently. My imagination was suddenly bursting with ideas for a new collective I call "When The Pie Was Opened"

To me, birds represent three things:

• Joy through song
• Freedom through flight
• Productiveness through foraging

Preparing this show has been a most enjoyable process. Placing personality and quirkiness into each piece has been a personal challenge, and it is my hope that this collection will bring a smile to your face, and maybe even a new purchase for your home or office!

I hope you enjoy the show!
