This picture, an 11"x 15" watercolour won the People's Choice Award at the 2008 Allied Art Council show in Alberta.

Night Flight

In the beginning there was water, then I added paint and thought to myself, "that's messy but fun, now 20 years later, with a lot of support from my wife, and some frustrating years, I have managed to produce quite a number of paintings , some good some not so good. Here are a few examples. If you have the time please check out my websiteto see more of my work go to
splashandpaint.com The web site is still under construction but will be open to the public soon

The painting of geese in flight was given as a wedding gift to some friends. As soon as I can I plan to do other Canadian geese paintings. Here in Alberta we seem to be overrun by these big birds but they do make a great painting.
