THE GRADUATION - RCMP
All members of the RCMP begin their careers at "Depot", the training academy in Regina. Viewing this ceremony, I was very impressed with its history and, in my painting, I depict a troop of North-West Mounted Police from the 1880's passing in front of the Administration Building of today, the central focus of Depot Division.

THE MARCH WEST - RCMP
The March West, which took place in 1874, is a landmark event in the history of the RCMP. It involved an almost endless column of men and equipment, moving slowly across the vast open prairies, often in the face of adverse conditions. In this painting, members of the Mounted Police head west to establish law and order under the watchful eyes of representatives of the First Nations.

CULTURAL EXCHANGE - RCMP
The RCMP and Native Peoples have enjoyed a long history of mutual respect, and for generations, story-telling has been one way that each learned from the other. And as a Mountie relates a story to a group of Native youths of today, images from the past dance magically in the campfire smoke.

THE IMMIGRANTS - RCMP
The North-West Mounted Police maintained law and order during the construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway in the 1880's. And when immigrants began to arrive, they received help and advice from the Mounties in their quest for a new life in a new land.

THE CROSSING
"I remember as a young boy, standing beside my father and watching the train rush down the track to a world that I could not imagine. With my father's reassuring hand on my shoulder, I would muster up the courage to wave to the engineer…who never failed to wave back. And even though the "new age" has pushed the steam engine deep into our memories and the tracks have remained unused for years, the crossing still reminds me of a world that was in many ways a nicer place in which to grow up"

THE DREAM BEGINS
When I met Joe Montana and his Father, I asked a lot of questions about his background. As a boy he learned to throw the ball throught a swinging tire on a rope to train his eye and reflexes. Later he was a star in college and went on to be one of the all time great quarterbacks of the game. Each stage of his life is represented in this painting and shows how his dream began.

ECHOES OF EDUCATION
Although the familiar school bell no longer rings and children no longer take their assigned seats in old, rugged wooden desks worn smooth by generations of learning, the echoes of education can still be felt when one passes similar buildings from our past such as this. When I see an old red schoolhouse in a countryside, my imagination begins to fill with the sights and sounds of yesterday.

EVENING RENDEZVOUS
The setting sun provides a romantic backdrop for that magical time suspended between daylight and nightfall. The gentle lapping of the water on the rock's edge and the subtle scent of shoreline reeds, stirred by a warm summer breeze completes the mood. Nature in its allure, invites us, generation after generation, to become part of this perfect setting. This is a place where your imagination is free to enjoy your fondest dreams, whether for the first time with that very special person, or as a return visit through a treasured memory. Nature's gift is yours to take, the romance of the moment will become timeless in your heart.

A FROSTY NIGHT
It was a tradition many years ago when Dr. John Smyth would bring friends to his home on the hill in his 4-horse cutter. He used any excuse to entertain and give them the thrill of a ride. Being the dominant person he was, many tales were told of his adventures. Some say his spirit can be felt even now on these cold frosty evenings.Now, many years later his Great Grandson Josh lives in the family home. He and his Daughter Eve just built a snowman looking down the road. As they head home for supper only the snowman will see the spirit of the old man and his friends swishing through the snow with sleigh bells ringing on another cold night adventure, but Dr. Smyth will see that life continues on in the house on the hill.

GET A HORSE
This scene depicts a corner in anytown in the early part of the century. The lights slowly come on as if to announce the frustration of being the owner of a newfangled machine---the horseless carriage. Although a milestone in the history of transportation, the automobile in its infancy was also the source of some good-humoured criticism thus resulting in the often-used admonition……far into the future.

LOVE AND CHERISH
This painting is dedicated to all women who are, and will be brides. The future holds so much optimism and excitement. A turn-of-the-century bride is about to throw her bouquet to her waiting bridesmaids. Aglow with hope and happiness, she looks forward to a new life with the one she loves. My wish is that both the bride and the groom will "love and cherish" …far into the future.

THE MEETING PLACE
There are many places in the countryside that stand unnoticed as nature consumes them, offering testimony
of someone’s struggle and joy as they lived in their time. Today, empty rooms gaze blindly through dust-covered
windows as a young couple appear at the old rusting pump, to enjoy a refreshing drink on their long journey.
As the sun settles, casting long shadows on the scene, our spiritual travelers disappear for another day.
Our two dogs have always been fascinated with this abandoned home and perhaps they know things that we can
only guess at. Is it another animal they sense or is it something else? They quietly watch as evening descends
into darkness and the cool night air beckons them to return home to a welcome meal.

MOUNT EVEREST
Painting mountains has always presented a challenge. And to paint the man who conquered Mt. Everest was like scaling the heights of the Himalayas. I wanted to capture the strength of Sir Edmund Hillary and relate him to the mountains. I share Sir Edmund's love for mountain climbing but nothing in my experience will ever compare to viewing the world at 29,000 ft. I was determined to convey the passion Sir Edmund had exhibited on that historic day in 1953 as he stood on the world's tallest peak.

MOVIN' ON
"While walking one evening under a full moon, the clouds appeared to be made of lace. In the distance, a glow from the city lights broke through the clouds in the night sky. I could visualize the fleeting spirit of an old farmer and his wife, guided by the frail glow of an old kerosene lamp and his sure-footed horse, vanishing into a tangle of noise and congestion that will eventually swallow everything in its path,
leaving only memories . . . memories of another time."

NURSING
"At the turn of the century, starched formality and rigid routine directed the life of a nurse. Over time, nursing has evolved with modern technology taking them into areas that no one could have imagined one hundred years ago. But even with all the advances in nursing, one aspect has remained unchanged. . . nurses have never lost the human touch."

OCTOBER RETURN
A cloak of mist muffled the faint sound of stirring water in the distance and a couple seemed to appear in a canoe as if looking for an occasion rather than a place. Perhaps it was when a never-ending love was born and nurtured in the solitude that can sometimes be a blend of memories and reality. The ruins of an old dock and the musty aroma of a cabin in the final stages of decay offer testament to the people that now search for the elusive instant when love gave them so much pleasure. Perhaps the most melancholy yet thought-provoking time is the fall. The birds have migrated and without concern for the past or present, a squirrel pauses to enjoy a morsel in his quiet dominion, undisturbed as the seasons change. There are spiritual memories that live on in places like this, where they remain unremitting and clocked in the mystery of the mist.

THE OLD FAMILY CAR
In the 40’s during the war, it was next to impossible to get a new car. Charlie Padget needed one to get around to his customers. He watched the want ads and finally his patience paid off. He became the proud owner of a 1941Chevrolet. Every weekend Charlie took great pride in maintaining his treasure. It always looked like it just came from the showroom. His wife Martha would look down from the porch, wondering what possible pleasure a man could derive from getting all greasy and dirty working on a car. Charlie’s son Bill on the other hand, had total empathy for the routine watching every step his father took. After Charlie died, the old car was stored in the garage. When Bill inherited the house after his mother passed away the tradition was revived and Bill looks after his father’s car with the same loving care. Now his son Charlie Jr. patiently watches for an opportunity to help his dad while his dog Teddy looks on with ambivalence.

OLD FRIENDS
Anyone who ever spent time in the woods with his dog knows how a special bond can form. Molly was a wise old Springer Spaniel and could anticipate things almost before they happened. Like the day Harry (her master) had a clear shot at a pheasant, only to find out he forgot to load his gun. She just looked up at him and yawned.
It's an awful feeling to be embarrassed in front of your dog!
He muttered to himself "thank God she can't talk".
It didn't matter to Harry or Molly if they brought anything
home or not because they shared so many adventures
together and would always be "Old Friends".

OVERHEATED
As it happens, I painted this work during one of the hottest spells of this summer. I was inspired when walking down a road very similar to this scene far from the hassle and noise of the city. Those who are old enough will remember traveling down seldom-used roads past woods, streams and the occasional farm. Cars were temperamental at best and usually found the most inconvenient place to break down in the humid sun of summer. In this depiction a couple found a sympathetic farmer to supply water for their overheated car. It was a chance for everyone to enjoy some company and talk about the day's events that are not so far in the past. The farmer's Grandson Thomas, remembering experiences so often related by his Grandparents of their earlier years here looks down the road on another hot summer day to see if what once was might still be.

RETURN TO COUNTRY KITCHEN
The original painting called "Country Kitchen" was completed years ago. That kitchen has long been abandoned and left to the ravages of time. Even so, the touch of loving hands still evident in the garden and inside the house say so much about the home that is no more. The curious glance of my grandson looking into the kitchen now moldy with the years and a battle lost with nature could hardly imagine the smell of fresh apple pie that once permeated the room. The rusted Model "T" surrounded by flowers, the trailing Clematis working its way in, the two Warblers sunning themselves are also reminders of times past.

SANTA'S HELPERS
This print was created to honour all of the people who serve with the Auxiliary Police Service. One of the activities they participate in is delivering Christmas Gifts to children who may not be as privileged as others are. Other activities include crowd control at parades etc., search and rescue clerical work and many other tasks. Members of the Auxiliary volunteer many hours of their time to train and serve where their services are needed. It would be difficult for many Police Services to function without them.

A SENSE OF PRIDE
Tom Phillips was a fireman all of his working life. When he retired, he could never forget the loyalty and fellowship he felt with the people he worked with through the years. After one of many visits to the old fire hall with his grandson, he gave him a real fireman's hat. Bobby knew then that he wanted to follow in his grandfather's footsteps. His 12th birtday was very special because Bobby received a model of Grandpa's truck made just for him and he was filled with a "Sense of Pride".

SHADOW AND MEMORIES
It's day's end as the sun casts a golden glow across the land. A couple enjoy a quiet moment of reflection by the lake perhaps thinking back to that carefree time when he rowed her across the water in his wooden boat. Is youth wasted on the young? Or is it the memories that keep us young?

THE SPIRIT OF FISHING
Mr. Emmet is a re-occurring character in many of my fishing canvases. Regrettably, as I began sketching the outline for Gone Fishin', I received word that my friend and neighbour has died suddenly. The always popular Mr. Emmet would appear in future paintings. But I decided that this one must be a tribute to that wonderful lone fisherman, and to capture the solitude and freedom that he enjoyed so. I decided to add Mr. Emmet's faithful companion Sally at the last minute. Here we see her as she sits at the edge of the dock in eager anticipation of the catch of the day. The painting is set on Otter Island, the dock a part of the old Nimrod Club. I took some liberties with the building, however, deciding to capture the structure as it once was, rather than how it appeared at the time this work was taking shape. Looking at the image today, I can still hear Mr. Emmet waving good-bye to his wife in the city, saying "If anyone askes for me, tell them I've gone fishin'"

THE TOLL HOUSE
On a cold, bright, windless night the swish of the sleighs runners approached the Toll House. The gatekeeper reluctantly pulled on his overcoat and left the comfort of his fireside to collect the toll from the horse drawn sled. There was almost always an exchange of greetings, as people passed by. The gatekeeper was the main source of information as to where hazards might lay along the way. Toll roads were common in Europe long ago and the tradition carried on here in North America as a way of raising money to maintain the roads of the day. They were usually located near the entrance of a town or hamlet. Wagons and stagecoaches alike stopped to pay the required toll.

WINTER SOLSTICE
As the sun was settling in the trees the blurred images of Thomas and his cousin Phillip could be seen in the
distance approaching home after a day of working in the woods for the local mill. Two deer cautiously watched as they quietly emerged from the bush. Were these travelers really there or were they images from the past?
Having purchased food supplies from the old general store, they packed their sleigh for the trip and pulled it behind them, back to the cabin. It was hungry work and the thought of a hot dinner by the warm fire, carefully tended by Thomas’ wife Anne was all they really wanted. It was an age before the conveniences of modern life clouded the challenges of nature and a time when foolish mistakes could have dire consequences in this unforgiving land.

THE ADOPTION
We all know how animals live in their own world even though we share our lives with them. Now and then we gain an insight into how they react together. Here a kitten, now motherless, has reached out to the other member of our animal family for companionship and comfort. Pablo, a big friendly dog known for his patience, became an eager recipient of his affection. As time went by they shared many adventures together hunting and roaming in the bush, but always coming back for dinner and relaxing for the evening
