Abstract

Acrylic on canvas.

I am a first-year education student from Saskatchewan, pursuing an English major and an art minor.

Baba's Jacket is dedicated to my Baba, Darlene. Acrylic on canvas, 24 x 30.

Still "Sleeping in the Sun" 40 Years Later is a reimagined painting of Mina Forsyth's 1982 - 1984 "Sleeping in the Sun," found in the University's art archives. My painting uses only primary colours and gloss to 'mix' the colours with light, creating the secondary colours you see.
