Poutine, etc.

Hello Everybody,

I can't believe it's nearly the end of the semester... Crazy!

The last couple months have been full of thinking about what I'm trying to accomplish with painting. I'm about ready to throw this whole idea of repetition and patterning out the window. I am still focused on work that showcases found compositions within my everyday environment, but I am now further exploring ideas of identity and the autobiographical nature of these works.

My latest subject matter has been poutine. Check it out..







Last week I began working on a series of much larger paintings that delve a bit deeper into the notion of icons, more specifically Canadian icons. There is still lots of poutine though, don't worry.

Stay tuned...
