Modern Magic
It would make many simple things a lot more complicated. This collection is for those with active imaginations and a sense of humour.
Steeper Creepers
If a wizard left his tea bags out overnight, the latent magic in his home might bring them back to life.
16" x 20" x 1.5" - Acrylic on Canvas
Ambitious Socks
Do you ever wear socks in sandals? What about toe socks in sandals? This pair is seeking adventure. Socks rarely see the great outdoors; generally, they are contained in boots, shoes & laundry bins. In a magical world, our socks might get a little bored if cooped up too long.
14" x 11" x 1.5" - Acrylic on Canvas
Midwestern Dragon Problem: The Rustler
In Alberta, ranchers were forced to contend with occasional losses of entire herds after a role-playing dragon moved into their region. The Rustler is a competent actor, using swishes of his tail to emulate the movements of cows, luring herds away from farms with ease.
Worry not, The Rustler cares deeply for his cows and does not act out of gluttony. Just odd hoarding habits.
18" x 30" x 1.5" - Acrylic on Canvas
Spell-ing Error
Trying to summon anything is risky, especially if you don't check your rune book. The wizard wanted a fairy... but ended up with a fishy instead.
18" x 24" x 1.5" - Acrylic on Canvas
Bananamanders
Witches' brews have never tasted better. Eye of newt, but make it potassium-rich.
16" x 20" x 1.5" Acrylic on Canvas
Dwagons!
A West Coast-dwelling species of dragon, "Skipjack". Adapted to city living in modernity, their soft, plate-shaped scales kept them safe in the kelp forests before the bright lights of city living drew them inland.
16" x 24" x 1.5" Acrylic on Canvas
Canadiana Encyclopedia Fantasia
Combining Canadian creatures to create something new, yet still familiar.
Flagship collection & major project for 2026.
Meese
The might of the moose, the parenting talent of the goose. Created in response to the overwhelming push to support Canadians. The spring snow experience (crunchy, a bit filthy, random ice patches) doesn't disrupt this family's morning routine.
48" x 36" x 1.5", acrylic on heavyweight canvas.
Large format reproductions available upon request.

Fraser River Legend
Inspired by the legendary giants of the Fraser River, this creature pads across the muddy depths. It has no specific name.
30" x 24", acrylic on canvas.
NO SOLICITORS
Edmonton's very own trickster demon. Coyote + Magpie = Coyopie!
30" x 48", acrylic on canvas.
Weaver Damn
Spiders are great home builders. So are beavers. These are excellent enviromental health indicators - they require clean, slow-flowing streams to create their little homes.
Open Edition Reproductions -> 8" x 10" ($20)
20" x 16", acrylic on canvas.
Canadian Tiger-Swallow-Tail Trout
18" x 24" x 1.5" - Acrylic on Canvas
Chickabees - Sounds of Spring
Inspired by my lived experience with dyslexia - I used to write bed at the top of every single sheet of paper. These cuties are a lot less frustrating to notice - chickabees! Whenever I am faced with a dyslexia problem, I will remind myself it gave me these creatures, and that's a blessing.
Original: SOLD
30" x 24", Acrylic on Canvas.
Chickabees - Puddle Party
I liked these guys too much to only paint them once. Both birds and bees love taking baths; this was the only other sensible way to portray these creatures.
Original
30" x 24", Acrylic on Canvas.
Urban Birberus
Oh, and you thought magpies were crafty? Meet one the bird-cerberus that caused legislative changes Canada-wide. Efforts to stop their destruction of decorative architecture failed. Only brutalist cities have retained some semblance of normality. Thankfully, they struggle to agree on things over extended periods of time, limiting their potential for world domination.
24" x 18", acrylic on canvas.
Unstoppable Force
This painting conveys one component of nature that is inevitable - death. Boons cannot fly in the open air, but they are adept at using their powerful wings to travel into deeper water without great difficulty.
Inspired by a river near Invermere, BC, where salmon runs used to occur.
48" x 30", acrylic on heavyweight canvas.
Large format reproductions available upon request.
Snackimals
If my other projects are my baked chicken & garden vegetable salad, these delightful works are artistically, like eating potato chips, a little treat.
Carp-o-hydrate
Inbread goldfish
8" x 8" x 1.5" - Acrylic on Canvas (sold)
Squizza
it just makes sense, frankly.
8" x 10" x 1.5" - Acrylic on Canvas (sold)
Slow breakfast
I only ever had shredded boxed hash browns for breakfast on days when I had extra time. So, I mixed them with a box turtle.
8" x 8" x 1.5" - Acrylic on Canvas
Croissant on a Cold Morning
8" x 8" x 1.5" Acrylic on Canvas
