I can't believe I never mentioned the pie!!!
Here are the menus I created for Aphrodite's Pie Shop in Vancouver a while back.
It was a joy to create delicious boards for delicious pies!
(sorry for the poorer quality of the above photo - it was taken with my phone and after a good many months had passed)

Well Oil Be!
Having only attemted two oil paintings so far, there is clearly much for me to still learn about this technique. However I am not altogether unhappy with the results of these two pieces.
The first piece was created at a workshop of artists in Whistler when I had the opportunity to learn from Rod Charlesworth. Here I "distinguished" myself as a watercolour girl in an oil landscape:
My second piece was commisioned/encouraged/supported by my colleagues and was created to be an item in the silent auction at our school's annual fundraiser. It has a different feel to it than the first. Titled: Birch (seen here unframed)

Chalking Big!
Well, pastel on paper actually. This piece is for our school and is almost 3 x 4 feet. As it is not a chalkboard but is on paper, I had no surface big enough to work on it aside from my window. So there it hung for a good 2 weeks while I worked on it.
This is our creative approach to celebrating the donations received in our Annual Giving Campaign. It represents the 4 seasons. In addition to adding some specially created leaves, snowflakes, flowers and fruits to indicate the achievement of smaller goals (based on when the donations are received), the "empty" rainbow will be filled in as we work towards the goal of a down payment for a Early Childhood Programs Building.
