Aerosol painting is one form of spray painting; it leaves a smooth, even coat, unlike many traditional rolled and brushed paints. Graffiti artists are known to use spray paint because the medium is quick, permanent, and portable.
With this project, I sought to explore rootedness – in community, in time and in location. This long wall faces a retirement community, mostly Quebecers, and I wished not only to remind them of their pasts but also draw their attention to our future. I illustrated 12 local edible plants, organized by months during which…
Exaltation of the Squirrel, 38.5 x 41 feet, aerosol and latex on brick, Ville-Émard, Montréal. Created thanks to the support of Concertation Ville-Émard.

“Herons”, approx 24′ x 29′, aerosol, Salaberry-de-Valleyfield. Paying hommage to Salaberry’s fauna and its coming generations, I wanted to combine aerosol with stained glass to contrast traditional techniques with modern ones. One thing that delights me when I paint these geometric works has been the input of various passer-bys talking about their places of origin…

As our urban environment grows and becomes more and more dense, we are surrounded by fewer wild spaces and it is important to protect and appreciate the ones that remain, as well as the flora and fauna that inhabit them. Continuous tracts of urban woodland such as the Don River valley allow a diverse ecosystem…

Each heart represents an act of kindness, a shared experience, or a connection—woven together to reflect the unity and diversity within Stratford. Beyond…

This piece represents my time in Calgary and the surrounding area – the vibrant nightlife and beautiful Rockies.
I have photographed a Calgary artist [Simone Saunders] with her textile work. Her work is especially important these days on a global scale, but I am also hoping to utilize this opportunity with BUMP in order to bring attention and support to one of my peers in the Calgary art scene. The overall composition plays off of the form of Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa with a modern subject.
