Kristen: A Collection of Monochromes and a Mixed-Media Artwork

Kristen commissioned this body of work for her two children—something lasting that would carry her spirit, her love and the way she smiled. In advance of the portrait session, she also commissioned a colour concept created specifically for an original Mixed-Media artwork. The finished work holds a cherished memory of her own mother, connecting three generations within a single commission.

Nathalie’s Family: An Artist’s Vision &  A Collection of Monochrome Prints

Nathalie’s husband commissioned this body of work as a gift to her, bringing their four children—two daughters and two sons—together in an Artist’s Vision and a collection of monochrome prints. It holds the family as they are now—a finished body of work that will remain with them as the children grow.

Ceilidh & Aura: A Mixed-Media Artwork & A Collection of Monochrome Prints

Ceilidh and her daughter, Aura, came to the studio while Aura was still very young. Their commission holds the tenderness of this age: the ease with which a child settles into her mother’s arms, and a closeness that will take a different form as Aura grows.

Melissa & Skylar 

Melissa and Skylar were invited to take part in a commission that began with a question: can a human and a horse develop a genuine relationship, or is the bond always a romantic dictatorship? The work later led to a meeting with Chris Irwin, internationally bestselling author and renowned horseman, and became the beginning of The Horse, My Teacher.
