Over 20 years ago we spent some time in Field BC to explore what we could about the Burgess Shale. It’s amazing to comprehend these fossils are from the Cambrian Era, half a billion years ago. We hiked Mt Stephen and I took some rubbings of the trilobite bed, pretty high up. These formed the basis of the carving for the matte acrylic resist plate here on the painting, turquoise kootenia.

Remember when I said I’d save you $2 million by showing you how to sketch a foot like Michelangelo? It turns out I was wrong. The auction was today, and Christie’s sold Study for a Foot of the Libyan Sibyl for $23 million! If you’d rather make your own drawing instead of spending a fortune, then find my Drink & Draw lesson at the Unaccredited College of Klaire over at Patreon. https://www.patreon.com/klairelockheart

I donated a work of art to the Human Rights Gala fundraising auction hosted by Dakotans for Health in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Uneditioned Print of Brolympia is a small archival pigment print of my painting titled Brolympia. I constructed and painted the 8x10” theatrical gold frame to make the tiny bro look ostentatious. The auction closes at 11:00 pm on January 11th, 2026.
