If you need a distraction from the current world situation 😱 I invite you to read my latest blog post, "New Year, New Paint, New Paintings." If you aren't up to reading (I wouldn't blame you) just enjoy the pictures 😉 annesley.ca/blog/2026/3/... #art #canadianartist

"Skoki Afternoon"(watercolour, 21 x 14") The entirely analog experience at Skoki Lodge is rustic, yes, but elegant & restorative in its simplicity. Antique oil lamps are the only light source in the 1930 ski-in lodge, creating a glowing interior that contrasts/augments the winter landscape. #art 🇨🇦

Fresh off the easel...one of two new watercolours heading to Canada House Gallery in Banff, Canada on Thursday. "Yamnuska" (50 x 30" framed) The iconic peak guards the eastern side of Banff National Park, and is popular with climbers w/ around 200 routes. I love the way it catches light... #art

Worthwhile watch: www.youtube.com/watch?v=E20u...

"Needles and Threads" (12 x 12", Watercolour) Another painting that just arrived at White Rock Gallery, B.C. A literal thread connects past & present: my grandmother's antique needles/dressmaking instructions, my mom's tea cup & a corset I made recently. annesley.ca/available-at-white-rock-gallery

"Valentines" (12 x 12" watercolour) just arrived at Whiterock Gallery, B.C. The type cherries are actually named "Valentine," part of Romance series developed for our cold 🇨🇦 climate at the University of Saskatchewan.They are little flavour bombs in the juiciest shades of red. #canadianart

Fresh watercolours 12x12” one features our Valentine cherries from the garden, the other a vintage tea cup with my grandmother’s antique wartime needle packs and a corset in progress. A few of my favourite things. #canadianartist #originalart #humanmade

"Arpeggio" (Watercolour, 16 x 20") my first painting of 2026 is on its way to White Rock Gallery, White Rock, B.C. arriving tomorrow. annesley.ca/available-at... #art #canadianartist #music

🇨🇦 For those who need a timeline cleanse (a.k.a. everyone) these are a few of the paintings I have made over the years inspired by one of my favourite spots in the Canadian Rockies that we ski tour up to annually for the past 30+ years... 1/2

"Moonlight Silk" now happily resides in a private collection, thanks to White Rock Gallery. Many of you have heard me prattle on (thanks for listening) about the importance of contrasts in painting - light & dark, warm & cool, order & chaos etc.. and I think it also applies to life in general. 1/2
