For all the years I've lived in Maine, I have always had a sense of Canada being at my back. It has felt like a place of refuge and safety, especially its forest, coastlines, and lakes, emanating a natural peace. So much of what I've been drawn to has been the wilderness, trees and shadows, long mountain trails to cold and transparent waters. The continuing presence of First Nation tribes, French settlers, and the persevering English, and their names across the Canadian maps, all speak to me of a welcoming warmth. And centuries of Canadian art, from Arctic carvings and Pacific Northwest totem poles, to work by the Group of Seven painters to more recent painters, inspire me to carry on with my painting.

Cherry: Beauty Over Time
October 21, 2019
When exposed to sunlight and air, cherry furniture changes color over time, shifting from a light salmon to a deep, rich reddish-brown. This transformation begins in as little as six months.

Perhaps, more than any other wood, cherry, when finished with rubbed oil and wax, invites people to touch it.
