Sweep me away: 6 new landscape oil paintings
This collection of 6 landscape oil paintings explores some of the beautiful vistas in Newfoundland that just “sweep me away” with their raw energy, swirly rhythms, and incredible beauty.
The original landscape oil paintings in Sweep Me Away are now available for purchase. They are all oil on canvas, mounted to cradled wood panels with the sides left natural wood, and waxed. They can either be hung on the wall unframed for a clean and contemporary look, or be custom framed if desired.
The 12″x 12″ paintings have sides that are 1.5″ deep. The 11″x14 have sides that are 3.4″ deep.

Finally, an update! Spring 2021 edition
My poor neglected blog … I’m a bad late blooming artist.
In my defense, I have been very busy over on Irene Duma Teaches Art — that’s my new online art school and website for people who want to learn painting. I’ve been working on an Intro to Oil Painting Course for beginners.
But eek, I didn’t realize I was gone that long. I am actually embarrassed to see that my last post here is from 2019. How did that happen? (It’s true what they say about time flying. Double eek.)
So, because I am busy and time is flying, and I know you are busy, here are a few quick bullet points so you can see what I’ve been up to.
It has been a busy coupla years! Lots of really good things have happened including:
- Showing my work at the Red Ochre Gallery (St. John’s, NL)
- The Baccalieu Gallery (Heart’s Content, NL),
- The new Earth and Sky Gallery in Twillingate, and
- Storeloft Supply Limited – Bay de Verde, NL.
- My work was picked for the cover of the Grenfell College’s Arts Journal, Paper Mill Press
- I was featured with an artist profile in the Newfoundland Quarterly, Winter 2019 edition, as well as on the Newfoundland Quarterly website here and here.
- Amazing artist Jenn Thornhill Verma talked about my work at a lecture at Memorial University, and featured my work on her page Cultural Landscapes along with some really super artists.
- My #miniduma triptych of the St. John’s Harbour was exhibited at the Rooms museum, Arts and Letters Awards, 2019
- I participated in the Soloman’s Path Art Collective, and met a bunch of wonderful artists. What a great community.
- I participated in fairs and shows including the Art Expo NL group show (Dec 7, 8, 9), and a show at the Marina.
- My original artwork continues to sell and be shipped across the world and there are two little pieces on a yacht traveling around the world (And yes, I am a bit jealous).
Not too shabby. This late bloomer is thrilled!
Coming up:
- you will be able to find my work in Gander at the Newfoundland Tea Company
- I will be launching my online painting course with
- a FREE 5-day itty bitty challenge to help stalled, stifled, busy and/or beginner artists get more art in their life.
That’s it. Busy busy. So follow me on Instagram or Facebook. I am able to post there more regularly than here on this blog.
And don’t forget my newsletter. It gets a little more love than the blog, but I am hoping to write more frequently.
That is all. If you have questions, reach out to me. But I might take longer to answer: Summer is coming and my mantra for the season is hike, paint, repeat. That’s me last year stuck in level 2 of a video game. (Or, a hike near Pouch Cove, Newfoundland)
