It’s no secret that I love a great budget-friendly, time-saving DIY home decor project. If I see a piece of art that I really want in our home and know that I can make it myself for less money and a little time – I usually try it. This lead to my latest creation. I used a super simple method to make a personalized hand lettered canvas that turned out beautifully!

The ‘Lonely I Stand’ print, It showcases the simplicity of the British Columbias west coast, the perfect print to add to a cozy cabin, travel van, or coastal home. ‘Lonely I Stand’ is newest pan and ink copy to our Coastal Tree collection, and this Douglas Fir was observed by myself along the shoreline of Buttle Lake in Strathcona Provincial Park. It stood strong and alone, but its unique characteristics called me to draw him. He is rugged and has stood the test of time, bracing wind rain and intense west coast weather. This is a 5x7 piece printed on matte recycled paper. Due to the unique nature of the paper, there may be slight specks and fibres present, each piece is hand inspected prior to printing to ensure excellent quality. If you have any questions about my artwork or inquired about special requests, please send me a direct message and I will respond as quickly as possible.
