About Valerie

Even though I won my first writing award at age 11, I didn't realize people had careers in writing until much later. I wrote anyways - letters, lists, poems, the occasional journal entry - but I think my love of reading is what really prepared me to be a writer. I would hide books under my blankets at night and read them from the light in the hallway whenever I could. I still read at night... More

I recently went on a family vacation that covered a lot of territory. We never specifically planned to take in any galleries or art exhibits but one of the things I noticed is the way art kept popping up through the "regularly scheduled" activities.... Read the rest of this post

Thanks for your kind comment on my book! It was fun to hear from you here in China where I am doing school visits!

Hah! Totally, though right now it's not so much mastery of the 'Trails' but dodging random road closures and constructions. This city is totally building bonkers.

Hey Valerie! Where on the Canadian prairies? I'm in Calgary, I'm a total Alberta boy. Even did the 'move to Vancouver, move back to Alberta' thing!

So I've added a link to CPSA on my site too. More people should know about their work. Have always worked in pen-and-ink (I'm one of those who lives in black and white), but I'm going to visit that corner of my studio where all the coloured pencils have been lurking in the shadows, awaiting their ti... more

Hi, Rae, Isn't it an amazing medium? I'm constantly awestruck by the variety that the artists there produce - both in technique and genre. North Light used to publish books of the annual exhibits (I've collected them all) and now offer CDs of the artwork displayed each year.

Hi Val,

I'm on the CANSCAIP list too (I live in Winnipeg), and just signed up on JacketFlap. Sidled over to visit your site and followed your link to the Coloured Pencil Society of America. I didn't even know they existed, and there is some a-m-a-z-i-n-g work on that site!
