Quarterly Newsletter | Winter Edition March 2022 |

|
Hello Friends, Thank you for continuing to support my art and accepting my quarterly Newsletter, "A Work in Progress"! It's the final weeks of Winter 2022, I hope this finds you well. I'm excited to share insights from my studio, creative inspirations, and other bits of news about my art that you might be interested in. In this letter, I will share new work, updates on our recent commissions, studio renovations, and upcoming work in progress. I hope you enjoy it! |

We are 2 months in to our complete studio renovation. After an exciting design process, Emilie and I are thrilled to see our plans coming to life! (architect rendering photo reference) So far, the concrete floors have been refinished and the framing is complete. Electrical and plumbing are nearly complete and we are hoping to have our city inspection approved for starting drywall by next week. |

|
As you can see we are definitely not living in the studio while renovations are under way, fortunately the space we are living in is near by and sufficient for continuing to create our art. Provided all continues on schedule, we are planning to re-open in May and resume normal studio work and visits...Can't wait to see you then! |

Recent private commissions from Texas and Arizona have been keeping me focused on imagery of St John's Newfoundland and Manarola Cinque Terre Italy, both are now enroute to their new homes. I am currently available for commission work, please contact me for more information |

I am currently training at the Nav Canada air traffic control centre for a new operational position controlling several airports within the local Vancouver flight information region. The job has reignited my passion for aerial photography and giving me an opportunity to pursue my familiarity with the local area, especially at night. Aside from job training and renovations, I am taking this time to focus efforts on a new body of work that focuses on aerial landscape at night. I plan to release a very limited selection of acrylic paintings in the summer newsletter, they will be made available to subscribers of my newsletter first and I don't intend on announcing this, so please be sure to look forward to that!! |
