It’s the most wonderful day of the year. Happy Halloween my friends! #painting #selfportrait #zombie

Yes!! Trading talent for talent! My friend @pienkowskin cut my hair and made my a blonde in return for this painting. I love it!! #getyourhurrdid #art #painting #blondeshavemorefun ? (Taken with Instagram)

Happy Father’s Day to the original hipster, my dad. This is a painting I did on vintage fabric of him when he was my age. As I was painting this the ArtLab custodian kept saying “Your Dad is gonna love it! He looks like such a hunk!!” #happyfathersday #painting #oilpainting #schoolofart #artstudent #artschool #universityofmanitoba #art #vintage #vintagefabric (Taken with Instagram)

Bombed a test but immediately after discovered that Fletcher Argue has framed and put up the paintings they commissioned me to do. Redemption! #liesitellmyself #painting #artschool #artstudent #art #zombies #mustaches (Taken with instagram)

Happy Mother’s day to this wonderful woman. This is a painting I did of her when she’s was my age. My mom is so much cooler than I will ever be. #oilpaint on #vintagefabric (Taken with instagram)

These ArtLab fairies are freaking amazing! Way better than the ArtBarn gremlins. Done for tonight! #painting #artschool #artstudent #universityofmanitoba (Taken with instagram)

Okay painting. I’m sick of you. Time for the ArtLab fairies to do the rest of the work. #artstudentproblems #universityofmanitoba #artstudent #artschool #painting (Taken with instagram)

Thanks for thinking of me, Warm White paint… But seriously, what are you protecting me from? #painting #artschool #artstudent #artstudentproblems #universityofmanitoba (Taken with Instagram at Art Barn)

That moment when you’re 10 hours into a painting and you realize what you’re trying to accomplish is mathematically impossible, and are forced to sand, paint over, and start from scratch… #universityofmanitoba #artstudentproblems #artstudent #artschool #painting (Taken with instagram)
