End of 2007

I really like this acrylic painting and it is at Galerie Montage in Ste.Genevieve right now. I wanted a post-apocalyptic atmosphere with gears sort of left behind as garbage but also looking alive, like funny little bugs.

Tree Gears: trees with roots turning into gears. This was done in my intaglio class. Acid etch.

Victorian Landscape: This is the first time I tried mezzotint and boy was it hard. It was alot of long, physical labour getting layers of tiny holes into a plate of copper by hand. But I like how it turned out. I was able to get about 10 good prints.

Leaving for the future

Idealizing technology and the far future is such an integral part of human nature. Well, anyway you can really see it when you go back to the Victorian Age or even just the 50's. This is my first foray into such concepts.

Alien Moon

Here is when I started incorporating my love of science fiction into my artworks. And discovered it's fun to paint planets afterall!

Mt.Rigaud

This is a family aquaintance running freely on top of Mt.Rigaud. He's a cute kid I just wanted to capture his exuberance. This painting is also at Galerie Montage right now

Mt.Rigaud Forest

Wow it's really beautiful up there in the fall which is my favorite season! I took tons of pics. I'll show a couple here. Anyways, I wanted to capture the light over the path and through the trees. The way it hit the rocks and leaves made it simpler to use dabs of paint instead of longer strokes.
