‘George’s Forest Dream’
Posted on October 20, 2017
‘George’s Forest Dream’-2017, 40″x40″
My Dog “George” thinks he owns this forest!
He carefully sniffs and dispenses his “social media communications” on all his carefully selected spots. He carefully analyses everything through his nose. I’m convinced he’s primarily a nose attached to a brain… Like any dog; if you don’t distract him from his nose, you won’t get his attention.
How do dogs dream?
I’ll take a shot at it; here’s George having an “out of body, experience”…
‘Green Timbers with George’

‘Green Timbers with George’-2017, 45″x 75″
Green Timbers Forest is pretty good as urban forests go.
It’s a world of it’s own… deserving of protection.
My dog, George… thinks it’s his turf. He patiently waits while I fiddle with my camera.
‘Green Timbers Tunnel with Dog’
Posted on June 21, 2017
‘Green Timbers Tunnel with Dog’-2017, 40″x 40″
Green Timbers Forest is in Surrey. That’s Surrey, in Metropolitan Vancouver, not London England!
My dog “George” is patiently waiting for me to stop fiddling around and continue the “sniff and wiz”.
He’s unaware that he’s been brought here today specifically to model.
Being a charming Standard Poodle, he’s a very good poser and very patient with the hired help (that would be me).
Nothing phases him, if this tunnel was there… he’d jump right in.
‘Burrard Landing Club 16’

‘Burrard Landing Club 16’-2017, 40″x 40″
“If you don’t know which way is up, at least avoid the drains!”
An urban globe on white…

‘Library Glass Warp’
Posted on May 17, 2017
‘Library Glass Warp‘-2011, 20″ x 29.75″
Vancouver’s main library looks like a modern version of the Roman Coliseum. Of course, it’s surrounded by beautiful glass buildings, so I just decided to wrap them around it. The Library is also circular, so I stayed with the circular theme. This was a winter project. As usual; there was no snow… lucky to be living in “Lotus Land”!
