Moon Dogs was created to share the rich history, people, places, and natural wonders of Saskatchewan, to show this province is more than flat land and power poles. The following images are article one from the magazine.

Snapshots capture moments, events or places in the blink of an eye, a tiny fragment of time imprinted on a film or the digital memory of a camera or smartphone. These photos are not planned or staged, they are created by a spontaneous or spur of the moment decision, the right place, right time, and right conditions coming together to create a specific image. On the following pages are some of my favourite snapshots. I find that these images are my best work, as they capture a certain something which cannot be created within the confines of a planned photo shoot. These fragments illustrate that even a life that is simple and ordinary can contain moments that sparkle and flash like a hummingbird in the sun.

Containing an overview of some of my work created over the past year and half, I have included several of my favourite projects and designs. Following is a small selection of the designs illustrating my creative style and artistic interpretation of the world around me.

Stitch by Stitch is a small book consisting of several of my original cross stitch designs. The patterns were selected to show a variety of styles and colour palettes. The small size makes these fun and quick to do. The following pages displayed illustrate one of the designs contained within the book.
