One Moose, Two Meese





Hello!
These photos are from our trip to Algonquin while we were at the cottage. We saw a total of 4 moose! Rather exciting! We also saw a porcupine in a tree beside the road.
I am seriously behind with this blog! I still have fireworks pictures, and loads of flowers, and bunny pictures, and some artwork!
This Tuesday Mom and I are going to see Josh Groban in concert!!! We are soooo excited! I did a portrait of him, so I still have to mount that on a board, and see if I can get it signed! Hopefully I will be able to get some good pictures, first time doing concert pictures, so might take some experimentation.
Keep checking back! I plan on updating more often now! Thank you for looking!

Gull River again


Hey all!
This is a long over due post from our vacation up north. Just a few of my favourite photos from the week we were gone. I might upload more later!
Tomorrow we are planning on going to to a barn, so expect lots of goat pictures!
I am currently working on a new painting! Whenever I think of it anyway! Don't hold your breath though, I am rather slow, I need to be made to paint! It's fun when I get down to do it though! I love painting, it is so relaxing!
I hope you like the Cottage pictures!

Swans and Sonnets







Swan spam!!!!
I took all of these photos while we were up at Stratford. Lots of fun, saw the play Camelot. The play was wonderful, I only wish I could have taken photos in the theatre! I defiantly recommend going to see a play if you get the chance! I hope you like the swan pictures. I am planning on putting up some cottage pictures next!

Movie Titles


Hey all!

These are from my past semester of school. We had to design a logo for a movie that somebody else thought up. Click through for bigger :)
I am currently trying to come up with a new header design, stay tuned!

Signs of Spring





Hey all!
yeah I know it is technically already spring, but it is too cold and rainy right now! I took these photos in our gardens around the house, except for the cat, who is at a friend's house (actually one of that cats where I did the mural in the previous post). Hopefully soon I will post some swan pictures from stratford!

Palomino

Hello all!
This is a new mural I recently finished at a friend's house! I had a lot of fun painting it, and my friend and her mother are happy with it! While I was painting it her barn cats were all over me begging to be stroked, and it was hard to concentrate with horses around! I finished the actual painting part in three days, and then a fourth day to seal it.
I heard from the local university where I did the other mural, and they want another mural over the summer! Maybe more then one! So I should be set for a summer job! Between that and some art classes I should be totally set! I hope you like the mural!

School is finally done for the summer! Hopefully I will get around to uploading more!
These are 2 pencil portraits I did for my Illustration class. I am pretty happy with both of them! I hope you like them!
