Hello! I’m baaa-aack!

After a rather strenuous move 4 hours from Toronto, my fiancee and I (and our two wonderful cats and many corals and fishes) have moved to the Ottawa Valley, to a sweet little town called Perth. This was a move home for me, and an adventure for my partner (he seems to like it so far!) I spent ten years in downtown Toronto, so this change so far feels like vacation. Let’s hope it stays that way, although my gut tells me vacation is over once the snow hits. I’ve been a tad spoiled in the more temperate Toronto climate.  So, this is where I’ve been hiding quietly for the last couple of weeks. My apologies for the delay in updating; we just recently got back online. I will still be painting and drawing your cats, dogs, children and loved ones…just with a much more scenic view!!! And fresher air.

On that note, I’m working on a special secret project, which I will divulge a little bit down the road. It’s a secret! It’s going to be pretty great! And I’m officially allowed now to show you this, as it was a Mother’s Day gift, and has been gifted. (I’ve been sitting tight, waiting to show it, for a couple of weeks now). Meet Henry, a very sweet little boy, with the most beautiful, intense steely blue eyes.

And on the Mother’s Day tip, I just wanted to say Happy Mother’s Day to all of the Moms, Grandmothers and Moms-to-be. Thank you ladies, for making the world turn. None of us would be here without you.
