View from Jacob's Landing


This piece was created mostly by burn marks from the controlled application of a wire-nib burner (with a variable temperature control). This was a great challenge and learning experience for me, but I am soooo excited with the results!

This is the view from Jacob's Landing in Hespeler Village, Cambridge, Ontario, Canada. I decided to try wood burning this scene because I really needed a change in pace.  Painting just has not been able to hold my attention lately. I have realized that I am a bit of an art harlot. I just get this need to go from one medium to another. I have kinda abandoned painting and digital art for the moment.  I feel terrible. I know my paints, iPad and brushes must miss me, but I have to follow my heart. It is just who I am. I guess I need to have change when it comes to art.

Thanks for reading this and for being so patient with my less then consistent updates!
