Blair now lives in Spruce View, AB after many years in Whitehorse, YK.
Though Blair’s initial artistic experiences have been painting on maps and cartooning, he has found yet another avenue to express his artistic creativity. He first started BARK CARVING since he moved to Spruce View and is thoroughly enjoying the new experience. The wood material is local and he is enjoying foraging for it throughout the year.
See Blair's latest bark carvings at ARTISTS ON THE AVENUE in Markerville, the 6th Annual Outdoor Art Show and Sale on June 28 & 29, 2025.

I am excited to bring my new creations to the annual weekend gathering in 2025 of Artists on the Avenue Market! I’m happy to offer light-as-air earrings I’ve created in my own special designs. From butterflies to flowers, to trailers like my own wonderfully decorated Trillium trailer that I covered in flowers.
I’ve also created some new silverware designs with beautiful patterns I’ve embedded into the metal. And from a spoon bowl and fork tines I've created Car Windchimes that come with a colourful ball chain to dangle them from the arm of the rearview mirror.

I have always envisioned beauty in nature and our wonderful surroundings and love recreating them in a different light by painting on a canvass and bringing the scenery to a new life. My inspiration and motivation stems from the passion and creativity that I feel once that brush strokes the canvass. I choose to paint through my vision, sitting in front of a blank canvass to enable me to bring it to life as I see it through my eyes.

I have always been an artist, from my youngest days to my current life. I now focus on making lampwork beads, jewelry from the beads, and painting. I paint in watercolour, acrylics and mixed media.
My work celebrates colour and patterns found in the world around me. I am often inspired by my travels both close to home and around the world.

I’m lucky to be able to live in Markerville with my own home studio. This will be our fifth year hosting Artists on the Avenue on the front lawns of our homes on Johnson Avenue.
I offer a wide range of functional work in many different styles of pottery. Using electric kilns, a gas kiln and a raku kiln there is bound to be something that you would like to take home.
There is quite a selection of bowls, cups, plates, trays, mugs, and kitchen utility pieces in both high- and mid-fired clays.
