Help!! I need a coffee!



There are a lot of mornings I could really use a cup of good coffee. Unfortunately I quit drinking coffee about a year ago for health reasons. Now I have to make due with a good glass of water.

Invention - Swimming goggles



It's snowing again and it's definately starting to look a lot like christmas, But I can't help but think of warmers days and swimming and relaxing poolside in the sun. I't's going to be a long winter...it's not even December yet.

Swimming goggles.. what a great invention! Invented in 1963 by aussi Gordon Rattray

Clear


Whats nicer then a clear blue sky. This is the Old Man Bridge in Lethbridge Alberta. It is the longest and highest of its kind in the world reaching 5,327.625 feet long (1.6km) and 314 feet high (96 meters). Its quite a site to see and stand under when a train is crossing.

This illo is drawn completely in illustrator with the help of my Wacom.

Wind


You've never experienced wind until you've been to Southern Alberta. The wind turbines are quite a sight. You can see hundreds of them lined up along a ridge near Pincher Creek.

A large acrylic painting I did a few years ago when my husband was playing trombone in a band.
This will always be one of my favorite paintings.

FAT



Well... I hate to admit this... but this illo is somewhat of a self portrait in regards to the 'Dance of the food wars'. With all the information about the right diet and what you should eat constantly changing I no longer know what to eat...low carb..high carb..high fibre.. low fat ...I just don't know anymore.

Speed

Last summer we went to the races. Not to bet (as I always lose) but just to take photographs and enjoy.

Tattoo


Cows are tattooed all the time for identification purposes... why not something a little more romantic and sensitive as opposed to the usual R1234.
