This past month has had its challenges, but one of our largest is finding the comfortable balance between getting out in nature during the day & painting in the night! Today we had the awe-mazing opportunity to catch some sun rays too. That's super special for London as it seems every other day is grey. It may be cold and wintery still but Lennon's STOP DROP & ROLLS, warms our hearts & always makes us smile. They need this and so do we!!! On our way out of the Forest, we noticed this beautiful wood pecker. Thanks for the show lil' buddy!!! Exactly what we ordered, a dose of nature with sunshine :)

Very proud of what we've accomplished so far, taking less than a handful of days off including one for the ice storm (unsafe travel conditions) and another for emergency oral surgery for Kim. But, we're back in the airport, painting the nights away and loving every moment. The staff and few travellers have been very supportive, we truly appreciate the kindness as we push ourselves this last week.
Let's see what we can do when you give 111% We got this :)
Thanks for all the Love & Support!
Trying to come in every night to paint, unfortunately Monday was an ice-day so took it off, but from now until complete... I'll be at the London International Airport daily or nightly :)
Happy with the progress.

We have so much to be Thankful for! It really is true, what you believe you can conceive. Not too long ago, Kim & I did a video on Facebook wanting to host painting parties in your space ... | |
Coincidence or synchronicity but we've joined forces with London Arts Council. Feels so good to be recognized by our peers, this is exactly what we needed!
Another day went by and an ad popped up for Culture Days. What is that?
"Culture Days is a nationwide weekend to celebrate arts and culture. Launched in 2010, this public engagement initiative aims to foster support for a diverse arts and culture community that is lived, created and expressed by all Ontarians."
After reading the website, we quickly sent an email to the L.A.C with our interest to participate in any way we can! We're so happy & grateful that we did.
Would you like to facilitate Community Murals for Culture Days? Of course we will!

With the guidance of L.A.C, the organization & support of Kim & our Beal Student William, it was a success!
The first day, we had planned to have everyone paint what they LOVE. After a while, this turned into a lil' bit more crazy than what were used to BUT overall, a great day of inspiration & fun was had by all!
On Saturday, Shane created a design to have everyone help him paint.
2 murals completed, 1 to go! Sunday Sunday Sunday!!!
Shane was able to create the mural he wanted to see on Friday.
Many say From young to 92! Everyone can paint if you believe you can. | |
Peace. Love. Happiness.
We had such an awe-mazing time over the weekend! To those that can't paint, we thought we couldn't do a 3 day event and look at us! We got this and can't wait to do it again real soon. Speaking of soon... | |
Find us at White Oaks Mall on October 26th from 11am - 4pm with another canvas.
YEAH!!! Stay tuned for more details.
What a great walk in our woods on a chilly, sunny Sunday morning.
Nature always has the best show!
