September 1st-31st at Oolong Tea house, I will be showing “Charge”, a series of pieces revolving around the perception of Power. What does power mean to each individual? What about sharing of power? Can it truly be taken away, or is it an inherent product of being sentient? What has changed about power, and how it affects social structure?
Come and see some art, drink some tea, and contemplate your own perceptions.
My next art show will be at this event, so if your in Calgary June 17th, dress up, and come on out!

Art project with Carl Ahlstrom, Kelly Shpeley and Christine Frestad
Semi Finalist in the Miss Norway 2010, Christine Frestad, is one of many girls who have been in demand by photographers after last year’s beauty pageant. In December, she got the opportunity to be part of a collaboration between painter Kelly Shpeley from Canada and photographer Carl Ahlström from Sweden.

This is a mural I did for a client in Oslo Norway, September 2010. The mural on the floor is heavily varnished and the mural on the wall is 3D with the right set of glasses. It was very fun! Oslo is amazing…as are the people. Generous, funny, clever humans!
The mural took a little planning due to the position of it (in a corridor), but I love problem solving. And it took about a week to do. I then coated it heavily in a protective layer of varnish.
My Friend “Rev” will be showing his bright beautiful works along with my Diorama works at Caffe Fantastico
From December 1st 2010- to January 14th 2011.
Caffe Fantastico is located in the bright and lovely Canadian city of Victoria.

“Tor’s Dragon”
The project that got me over to Norway is the floor Dragon. Tor Langballe asked me to come over to Oslo (Norway) and do a mural…so I packed up my paints and shuffled on over the pond. It was fabulous and fun. The prep was pretty quick. We started with the existing floor (non-textured lino) and washed it down with amonia. Then, after letting it dry fully, we sanded the floor down with heavy grit and then light grit sand paper.
