Butterfly Pheonix 18" x 24" Acrylic on canvas Another acrylic work, and something a bit different from my usual. I don't tend to paint people unless I'm trying to process through big emotions.

Last year I did a series of re-imagined creatures of legend from around the world. One of my favourites was this little teacup version of a Ninki Nanka. From West African Folklore Ninki Nanka is said to be the most frightening spirit around the lower Gambia. But mine is just a little guy.

Ballpoint pen drawing of a chameleon that I completed last year. It is smaller than my usual works at 8" x 10" but it is jam packed with intricate little details.

Part of an Origami series I've been working on. This is 4' x 5' of oil paint on canvas.

The Bailey Theatre is so beautifully liminal.

I've been really inspired watching my coworker draw with a ballpoint pen (iykyk) so I spent yesterday afternoon scribbling chubby little frogs 🐸💖

All this shitstorm from Evangelicals about the pastor calling for compassion just shows how the Evangelical movement is not religious, it's political. It's been an insidious disease in this country for 45 years and it needs to be treated as a political group, not a religious one.

A graphite piece I did of my partner's favourite animal for their birthday a few years ago. It's a combination of graphite powder, white chalk, and white gel pen on grey paper.

So much hard work goes into the creative process… be that in the arts or in the endeavour of humanistic psychotherapy. I examine both in my most recent blog posting. www.twiltondale.ca/blog

Got my cat an RC car to get him to wear out his energy but he just sits on it like he's hoping it will hatch.
