Not a Painter

 When I say I am an artist a lot of people assume that means painter.  I have never considered myself a painter even though I use paint often.  Last summer I was having a lot of fun with paint and created these funky garden totems.  I also painted a picnic table for Explore Waterloo Region.  There might be another opportunity to paint another picnic table in the future.  I am excited about that.

My garden totems are bright and cheerful.  They make me smile.  They add a beautiful pop of colour to my backyard where no flowers will grow.  The shade from our giant maple tree just doesn't allow for a garden.
