The big reveal for my new abstract painting series Émotions will take place during three summer art shows. The art, inspired by Flaubert's novel Madame Bovary, will be on show at The Langham Cultural Centre in Kaslo, Bijou in Nelson BC and The Cross in Vancouver's Yaletown.

I really enjoyed working with this literary master piece to achieve a series of layered abstract paintings reminiscent of the French country side, love, lust and all their intricacies.
