Everything that spun in circles is on fire now. The knight doesn’t look back. Two years ago a virus had been living quietly in my phone — feeding on signals, leaving traces I couldn’t see. I deleted it all. Reset to zero. Held the blank screen like something newborn. This painting was already painted. It already knew. Watercolour · 2024

Fire breaks from the earth. The sea does not flinch. No specific place — just the oldest argument in the world, the one neither side ever wins. from nothing but imagination and the need to know which one holds. Oil on canvas · 2018

The sea doesn’t negotiate with fire.
Dark smoke, blue water — two forces that never surrender.
Painted in 2018, when I was learning that some things can’t be controlled — only witnessed.

A vibrantly lit, twinkling scene, with a bit of astimatism shining through. There are roses, and various sweet treats, and flowers, and a tree, and oh so many candles. In the center, the Rev. Scary Baloney resides over the remembrance of the return of the light.

"The Darkest Night (Return of the Light)," mixed media on chipboard, 2025.

The Quantum Portrait by Vancouver Artist Richard Blanchard ✨️ I had so much fun on this photo shoot!. #Artist #Vancouverartist #Blueskyartist #nebula #Quantum

Hello there 👋
It’s been a long time since I was here….

These are some mini/tiny pieces I’ve created lately

#miniatureart #gouache #fruitart #bskart #vancouverartist

A view of the Emanation Room in the long lost Our Lady of Marsupials Parish. It symbolically reveals the emanation of the universe and the emergence of diversity from a single source. There is a chapel, full of symbolic objects. A large crystal refracts heavenly beams of light in all directions.

"The Emanation Room," mixed media on paper, 2025.

An abstract representation of niagara falls, ontario, featuring ships, a border crossing, lots of cars and traffic, a hotel sign, the Canadian flag, and of course, niagara falls.

This is a sketch of a memory of my first trip to Canada.

"Niagara Falls, Ontario, 1999," mixed media on paper, 2025.

We are authors of our destiny, which is past, present, and future. 2010.4.14

In this painting, we can see the twinkle of the later Daalkaatlii Diaries...

In the background, a bucolic, pastoral scene. An ancient altar with four columns is in the foreground, it is covered in fruits and flowers and candles. A sacrifice has been prepared and is about to be offered.

This is like an angry letter that I didn't send.

"The Sacrifice," mixed media on cardboard, 2025.

A velvet purse drops out ribbons, napkins, shrimp, candles, champagne in a bucket, and of course, cut flowers in empty space.

Waves, waves, waves, still and moving. A portal opens, to a couch, a television, shorts, cans, condos, towels, toys, and my swimming trunks.

The aftermath -- bottles, napkins, a vase, the couch, a slipper, and a lampshade. Irises, roses, and pansies litter the floor.

In the background, an imposing stone gateway with mysterious white light emanating from within. A marsupial, clothed in red and crowned with laurels emerges from within in a cloud of smoke. There are flowers, and topiaries, and candles, and the banner of victory.

A blue and white painted ceramic vase, full of of an array of cut flowers and greens, crowned with pheasant's eye narcissisi.

A large, beautiful garden with many blooming flowers and ornamental trees. In the center is an ancient hewn stone, with a slain parrow being devoured by a spotted Quoll. In the foreground is a candle, a spear, a ripped teddy bear, and ketchup and mustard. The quoll has shed a single glimmering tear.

"Comfort Food," mixed media on paper, 2025. Currently on exhibition at artSpacific in Aldergrove, B.C. #fineart #collage #mixedmedia #analogcollage #blueskycollage #canadianartists #vancouverartist #canadianart #queerartist #outsiderart

A handsome carpet, upon which is placed a sturdy ceramic pot. From this emerges some kind of fantastic tree, with needly green leaves, and tulip blossoms, and some kind of wispy purple display.

A pair of matching flower arrangements in white dishes. They are similar, but not exactly the same, featuring a range of colors and textures.

A man stands in a body of surging water, rainbow x's and beams of light emerging from his three eyes. The entire scene is sliced into thin strips with pure white light emerging from within.

This sketch is an exploration of how to express the experience of ego death. #art #fineart #collage #mixedmedia #analogcollage #blueskycollage #canadianartists #vancouverartist #canadianart #queerart #outsiderart #egodeath #psychedelicart
