Sears Window 1952 Sold
40x50 Plaster on Wood
$3200
Sears Window, Montreal
This painting captures a glimpse of Montreal’s retail history, when the department-store window was itself a form of theatre. Sears Canada grew from the 1952 partnership between the Robert Simpson Company and Sears, Roebuck & Co., becoming one of Canada’s most familiar retailers.
The figures in the window, dressed in the fashions of their time, suggest a Montreal street scene from an era when shopping was an event and storefront displays offered passersby a carefully constructed vision of modern life. The painting preserves not only the clothing and architecture of the period, but the quiet ritual of people stopping to look.
Plaster on wood, after a historic photograph — a memory of Montreal’s streets, fashion, and disappearing department-store culture.

Korean War 1952

Hockey on the Imjin River
During the Korean War, Canadian troops often spent long periods in defensive positions, patrolling and holding the front rather than constantly engaging in major attacks. The Canadian brigade's positions were close to the Imjin River, and during the winter the river froze solid enough in places to support skating. Soldiers cleared snow from the ice and created a makeshift rink they called “Imjin Gardens.” The area was only a short distance from the fighting, and the sound of artillery could sometimes be heard while the games were taking place.
Hockey equipment was sent from Canada in late 1951, allowing the soldiers to organize more formal games. Several Canadian units took part, including the Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry (PPCLI), Royal 22e Régiment (the “Van Doos”), Royal Canadian Regiment and Royal Canadian Horse Artillery. The games developed into a tournament between the different units, giving soldiers something to look forward to while they were in reserve.
One of the best-known games took place on March 11, 1952, when the 1st Battalion, Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry played the 2nd Battalion, Royal 22e Régiment. The event eventually became associated with the Imjin Cup, and the PPCLI won the championship game.
The tradition continued into 1953. The 25th Canadian Infantry Brigade held its hockey championship final on the Imjin River, bringing together Canadian soldiers from the brigade for a competition that was extraordinary given the circumstances. The Canadian Army later described these games as a way of strengthening morale and giving troops a little piece of home while serving thousands of kilometres from Canada.
There was also something symbolic about playing Canada's national winter sport in the middle of a war. Veterans later recalled that the games created camaraderie and temporarily allowed soldiers to put aside the realities of combat. Claude Charland, who participated in the games, remembered the hockey as a kind of party and a chance to feel less lonely.
More than 26,000 Canadians served during the Korean War, and 516 Canadian service members were killed in action. The fighting ended with the armistice of July 27, 1953, although Canadian personnel remained in Korea afterward.

Holy angels
Plaster on Wood
20x20
$450
The Sisters of Charity of Halifax, commonly associated with the name Holy Angels, operated schools and institutions for Indigenous children in several parts of Canada, including Shubenacadie, Nova Scotia, and Lebret (Qu’Appelle), Saskatchewan. Their work was connected to Canada’s residential-school system, which sought to remove Indigenous children from their families and communities and assimilate them into Euro-Canadian Christian culture.
The Shubenacadie Indian Residential School, which operated from 1930 to 1967, was the only residential school in the Maritimes. It was run by the Sisters of Charity of Halifax and funded by the federal government. Children from Mi’kmaq and other Indigenous communities were separated from their families and required to follow a strict program of schooling, religious instruction and institutional work.
The Qu’Appelle Indian Residential School, near Lebret, Saskatchewan, opened in 1884 and became one of the longest-running residential schools in Canada. It was operated by Roman Catholic religious orders, including the Oblates of Mary Immaculate and the Sisters of Charity. Thousands of Indigenous children passed through the school during its history.
Both institutions are part of the larger history of the Canadian Indian Residential School System and the lasting effects it had on Indigenous families, languages, cultures and communities.

Isobel Stanley
30x40
Plaster on Wood
$1800
Lady Isobel Stanley (1875–1963) was the daughter of Lord Stanley of Preston, Canada's Governor General from 1888 to 1893. She became one of Canada's earliest known female hockey players after watching a game with her family at the Montreal Winter Carnival in 1889. Inspired by the sport, Isobel played hockey on the outdoor rink at Rideau Hall in Ottawa and helped organize some of the earliest recorded women's hockey games.
Isobel and her brothers became enthusiastic hockey players, and their excitement helped fuel their father's growing interest in the game. While Isobel did not create the Stanley Cup herself, historical accounts credit her and her brothers with helping persuade Lord Stanley to establish a trophy for Canada's hockey champions. In March 1892, Lord Stanley announced that he would donate a "challenge cup" to be held by the champion hockey team in Canada.
Originally called the Dominion Hockey Challenge Cup, the silver trophy was first awarded in 1893. It eventually became known simply as the Stanley Cup, now one of the most recognizable trophies in sport.
Isobel's importance goes beyond the Cup: she was one of the first women to play hockey in Canada and helped demonstrate that the new Canadian game belonged to women as well as men.

Rossmore
Womens
Hockey
Plaster on wood
30x40 $1800
The Rossmore women’s hockey team was part of the early tradition of women’s ice hockey in British Columbia, when the sport was still largely organized through local communities, schools and amateur clubs. Women’s hockey offered players an opportunity to compete at a time when organized female sport was still developing across Canada.
Rossmore was a small community, and its hockey players reflected the important role local teams played in bringing women together through sport. Games were often community events, with players supplying much of their own equipment and travelling to neighbouring communities to compete. These early teams helped establish women’s hockey as a legitimate part of British Columbia's sporting culture.
Although detailed records of the Rossmore team are difficult to locate today, photographs of early women's hockey teams provide an important glimpse into the history of the sport. The players represent a generation of Canadian women who challenged the idea that hockey was exclusively a man's game.
The Rossmore team is therefore significant not simply for its individual games or championships, but as part of the broader history of women claiming a place on Canada's ice.

Ralph Scott McCreath
Plaster on wood
30x40 $1800
Ralph Scott McCreath (1919–1997) was one of Canada's most versatile figure skaters of the 1930s and 1940s. Born in Toronto, he joined the Toronto Skating Club in 1933 and competed in singles, pairs, ice dancing and fours—an unusual breadth of competition even for his era.
McCreath became a Canadian champion in men's singles in 1940, 1941 and 1946, and won numerous Canadian and North American titles with several skating partners. In 1941, he won the North American men's singles championship in Philadelphia, as well as the North American pairs title with Eleanor O'Meara. His achievements earned him the nickname “Canada's Golden Blade.”
His skating career was interrupted by the Second World War. McCreath served overseas with the Canadian Army from 1941 to 1945, eventually rising to the rank of major. After returning home, he made a remarkable comeback and won the Canadian men's singles championship again in 1946.
McCreath later studied law and became an important figure behind the scenes in Canadian skating, serving as a judge, referee, team manager and executive member of the Canadian Figure Skating Association. He also judged at Olympic Games and World Championships and helped establish the Olympic Trust of Canada.
In 1994, Ralph McCreath was inducted into the Skate Canada Hall of Fame in recognition of his extraordinary contribution to Canadian figure skating. He died in Toronto in 1997 at the age of 78.

Peggys Cove 1920
Plaster on wood
40x50 $2400
In 1920, fishing off Peggy’s Cove was a hard, hands-on way of life. Small wooden boats carried local fishermen out into the cold Atlantic, where nets were set and hauled by hand, often with little more than simple tools and the strength of the crew. The sea provided the community with its livelihood, but it could also be unpredictable and dangerous. Days began early, and a successful catch meant food for the family and income for the household. The boats, nets, rocky shoreline and working fishermen were all part of a close-knit coastal community whose lives were deeply connected to the ocean.

Crystal Palace Picton Ontario
40x50 Plaster on wood
$2400 Sold
Built in 1887–1890 on the Picton Fairgrounds, the Crystal Palace was an exhibition hall created for the Prince Edward County Agricultural Society. Inspired by Joseph Paxton’s famous Crystal Palace at London’s 1851 Great Exhibition, its design celebrated the Victorian fascination with glass, light, agriculture, industry and progress.
This painting captures the building not simply as architecture, but as a place of community and spectacle—where generations gathered for agricultural fairs, exhibitions and celebrations. Today, Picton’s Crystal Palace is considered the only surviving original structure of its type in North America.
Plaster on wood, after a historic photograph — a portrait of a building that became a symbol of Picton’s community history and the enduring tradition of the county fair.

Barbara Ann Scott
Plaster on wood
10x30 $450
Barbara Ann Scott (1928–2012) was one of Canada’s most celebrated figure skaters and became known as “Canada’s Sweetheart.” Born in Ottawa, Ontario, she began skating as a young child and quickly emerged as a remarkable talent. At only 11, she won the Canadian junior championship, and in 1944, at age 15, she won her first Canadian senior title. She went on to win the Canadian championship four more times.
Scott reached the height of her career in 1947–48, winning the European and World championships in both years. In 1948, at the Winter Olympics in St. Moritz, Switzerland, she won the gold medal in women's figure skating, becoming the first Canadian to win an Olympic figure-skating gold medal. She was also the first North American to win the European and World titles in the same year.
After the Olympics, Scott turned professional and performed with the Ice Capades and other international ice shows. She retired from skating in 1955. Later in life she became an accomplished equestrian and remained an important figure in Canadian sport. She was appointed an Officer of the Order of Canada in 1991 and served as an Olympic torchbearer for the 1988 and 2010 Games. She died in 2012 at the age of 84.

Thomas Moore Regina 1897
Thomas Moore, Regina Indian Industrial School, ca. 1897
This image of Thomas Moore dates from approximately 1897, when he was a student at the Regina Indian Industrial School in Saskatchewan. Thomas, who was Saulteaux, entered the school as a young child. The Regina school opened in 1891 and was operated by the Presbyterian Church with financial support from the Canadian government.
Photographs of Thomas Moore were used by the Department of Indian Affairs to demonstrate what officials considered the "civilizing" effect of the school. His clothing, hairstyle and appearance were deliberately changed, creating a visual contrast between his Indigenous identity and the identity the institution sought to impose.
Thomas's photograph reminds us that behind the policies and institutions of Canadian history were individual children whose lives were profoundly changed.

Silence
20x30 Plaster on wood
$450
The silencing of Indigenous women in Canada has a long and painful history, rooted in colonialism, racism, and systems that denied Indigenous people their voices, rights, and cultural identities. Indigenous women were often excluded from decisions affecting their families and communities, while government policies and institutions disrupted traditional roles, languages, and cultural practices. The disappearance and murder of Indigenous women and girls has further exposed the consequences of this history, particularly when families' concerns were ignored or dismissed. Yet Indigenous women have continued to speak, organize, create, and lead, preserving their stories and demanding to be heard. Their voices are an essential part of understanding Canada's history and its continuing relationship with Indigenous peoples.

Ada Blackjack 1921
Ada Blackjack: Survival in the Arctic
In 1921, Ada Blackjack, an Iñupiat seamstress from Alaska, joined a small expedition to Wrangel Island, north of Siberia, as a cook and seamstress. The expedition was led by Canadian explorer Vilhjalmur Stefansson’s associate, E. L. Knight, and was intended to establish a settlement and claim the island for Britain. Ada was not an experienced explorer. She went largely because she needed money to support her young son.
The expedition quickly became a disaster. The four male explorers—Lorne Knight, Allan Crawford, Fred Maurer and Milton Galle—were poorly prepared for the Arctic conditions. When supplies began running short, Crawford, Maurer and Galle attempted to cross the frozen sea to Siberia for help. They never returned. Lorne Knight became seriously ill with scurvy and was eventually unable to leave his sleeping bag.
Ada was left alone with Knight and continued caring for him, hunting and gathering what food she could. She learned to survive in an environment of extreme cold, darkness and isolation. When Knight died in June 1923, Ada was completely alone on the island. She survived by trapping foxes, hunting birds and seals, fishing, and making use of whatever supplies remained at the abandoned camp.
For months, Ada lived alone in the Arctic wilderness. She kept a careful routine, maintained the camp and continued to hope that a rescue ship would eventually arrive. Her determination and practical knowledge ultimately kept her alive.
On August 19, 1923, after almost two years on Wrangel Island, the ship Donaldson arrived and Ada was rescued. She returned to Alaska with the expedition's cat, Vic, and was reunited with her young son.

Hazelton Hockey team
Plaster on wood
10x30 $450
Hockey has a long history in Hazelton, British Columbia, with organized games documented as early as the 1910s. A Northern BC Archives photograph records a Hazelton team playing the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway team on February 20, 1911, while another photograph from around 1910 shows local players competing in a makeshift outdoor rink.
By 1913, Hazelton was participating in the Northern B.C. Hockey League, demonstrating that hockey had become an organized part of sporting life in the region. A hockey banquet photograph from around 1920 also reflects the importance of the sport to the local community.
Much later, the Hazelton Wolverines became a prominent senior team. An all-Native men's Wolverines team was formed in 2005 and won its division at the 2006 Lumber Kings Sports Club All Nations Hockey Tournament. The Wolverines subsequently joined the Central Interior Hockey League for the 2006–07 season.
Hockey remains an important community tradition in Hazelton, supported by minor hockey programs and local outdoor skating facilities.
