I fell in love with an artist, I married him, we bought a little house in beautiful North Eastern Ontario in the little Hamlet of Cooper. We are retired now.
This is an account of our journey.
This is the story of how he has changed my world forever, and the journey we share.

This past week I shared some of my paintings with my co-workers - it was both scary and very exciting.
Four years ago, at Christmas time Terri moved into our home. Probably the best Christmas I had ever had, full of ... potential. We were unsure at the time what was coming our way, but we both knew something special was there. He gave me a painting, no, he did better than that, he presented me with a painting, it was one of the most romantic moments in my life. Two years ago I contacted Trevor, www.trevoredwinclark.com to purchase a painting Terri loved of his, a portrait Trevor has done of Terri. It was a great present to give him, I think the best gift I had ever given. Last year there was no "Christmas painting". This year as we were putting up the Christmas tree, I told Terri that I thought we should have a "Christmas Painting". I downloaded some Christmas themed images, and began to create a painting for Bay and Brennen. My first Christmas painting. I choose an old fashioned Christmas card image. I had fun instantly with the subject matter, but the perspectives...
He was rolled up in the basement at his sisters place, safe but hidden, almost forgotten I think. He was one of the first pieces Clancy had created. He was unfinished, and so handsome, his gaze I found intense. He was another painting, ironically enough that his brother-in-law also was interested in. Clancy always laughs that both Serge and I are Gemini's and how alike we are. It seemed we also have the same taste in art work. Man Rinaldo would become a Christmas present I would get that year. Me became the second piece of art work I owned.
We leave this Sunday for a five day camping trip. We are going to Georgian Bay area. Norther Ontario here we come. We are planning to bring some canvasses with us, and his sketch book etc. I will also bring my camera. We are hoping to have a show for him in the Spring, so a trip like this is perfect to help with a few pieces for his next body of work. Thank being said, he has one commission to finish, one to start and another one to give as a gift to the friend that married us. He is one busy artist these days, and that is a good thing. Diana
