Textures of the earth,

held in oil & cold wax.

Hi, I’m Roberta.

I paint the sense of place rather than the details, drawing inspiration from the fields, rivers, lakes, and rocks of the Canadian prairies. Using gathered stones and clay, I create natural earth pigments that I often add to my paintings, blending little bits of the landscape right into the work itself. My art is a quiet act of gratitude for the land and places that ground us.

I work slowly and intentionally, building two ongoing collections in oil and cold wax:

RIVERRUN — large organic abstracts

SKYSONG — small layered landscapes

Welcome — I’m so glad you’re here.

Inspired by rivers & rocks.

Crafted by hand.
