Colonel Samuel Smith Park

Horizontal colour landscape painting. The upper section of the painting is green fading into yellow. On the left side of the page, there is a city skyline of tall rectangular buildings and a taller skinny building with a circular piece about one-third from the top. In front of the city skyline is a cluster of dark coloured trees to the left edge. In front of the skyline and trees is an oval-like shape pond reflecting the colour of the sky (orange, yellow, and white details) and the trees. Over the water towards the right side, there is a dark coloured bird. On the right side of the painting is a grey vertical path leading from the bottom right corner to about one-third from the top. Around the path and water, there are green trees and some orange leafed trees. In the sky beside the orange tree, there are two dark coloured bird flying. Between the trees and water on the water’s right edge, there is a brown edge with darker crack-like details. Slightly above there is a white bird flying horizontally to the right side. In front of the water at the bottom right and centre side, there is long dark lines of grass with some yellow and pink details. At the bottom right, there is a hand-written name.

Sleeping Swans

Colour landscape photograph. The top half of the photograph is a mostly cloudy sky. The clouds are coloured dark blue, white, purple, and indigo. The lower half of the photo is a pond/lake. Around the water in about the vertical middle of the photo, there are trees, bushes, sticks, grass, and dirt. The trees and bushes have green leaves. On the left side of the photo, the trees appear closer and are taller than those on the right. About two-thirds of the way from the left, the land curves and water appears to go behind the land but the land is still visible on the other side of the water. Along the land on the right side, bullrushes with fluffy tops can be seen in clumps. Close to the edge of the water near the left side, there are two white swans, both who appear to be sleeping with their necks down. The water of the pond is calm and reflects the land and sky in a mirror image. Along the forefront of the water, patches of tall green grass growing out of the water can be seen (one small patch just off centre on the left, two just off centre on the right, and two closer to the right side). The photograph is in a black frame.

A Cotton Candy Morning

Colour landscape photograph. The top half (or slightly less) of the photograph is a blue, white, purple, pink, and orange sky with some clouds (of the same colours). The clouds are long, thin, and horizontal across the sky. Around the vertical middle of the photo on the left side, there is a line of trees which appear closer and taller at the left edge and fade off as it goes to the centre of the image. In the rest of the middle, the sky goes a little lower and meets the bottom half of the image. On the bottom, the image is divided into two subjects: on the left is a gravel beach and the right is the water. The left side is a gravel beach with grey stones. Where the beach meets the water, it forms a rounded edge. The water is calm and reflects some of the colours in the sky (mainly pink and purple). The photograph is in a black frame.

2019.001.01a: Sculpture
Blue cut plexi-glass. The piece is straight and long on the bottom. The sides are straight but the left is shorter than the right. The top side is curved inwards with some bumps along. The curve starts higher on the right, curves inwards with a triangle-like point in the middle, a straight section after the triangle and then it curves down and then back up.

2019.001.01b: Sculpture
Blue cut plexi-glass. The piece is straight and long on the bottom. The left side is straight but short and the right side side is straight but about one-third taller than the right. The top side is not straight, the right corner where it meets the side is curved upwards but then goes down a little, from there it goes back up a little and is fairly straight with a few bumps but then curves up slightly and drops down and then creates a diagonal line, at the end it has a slight dip but then goes straight up and creates a horizontal line to meet the left side.

2019.001.01c: Sculpture
Blue cut plexi-glass. The piece is straight and long on the bottom. The left side is straight but short and the right side side is straight but about one-third taller than the right. The top edge is very uneven and creates a C-like shape with bumps and dips along the inside and outside of the C and before and after.

The windows are rectangular with a gold metal frame with six screws. On each side, there are carvings of multiple bricks with the word “Remember” within. On each side, there is an addition which protrudes outwards a few inches. On the top of the building, there is a slanted roof that is flat on the top. On top of each protrude there is a triangular slated roof. On the roof there are various spots where “We Remember” is etched in throughout on each side as well as floral/vine-like details along the top corners of the roof. On one side of the roof, there is an oval plaque screwed on. On top of the roof, there is a bowl like part with various words etched on around the bowl. Attached on top of the bowl, there are curved triangular prisms of various sizes sprouting out upwards. On these curved pieces, there are birds carved in with geometrical designs within the bird and first names carved in throughout.

2023.001.01a: Lampshade
Cone-like shape with an open top and bottom end. The outside of the lampshade has cream paper glued on around the whole object. The paper has small holes punched in, creating the shape of a person sitting wearing a straitjacket with an object beside. The inside of the lampshade has some clear tape along the top rim. Stemming from the top rim, are two pairs of metal rods across from each other. The pairs of silver metal rods point down and they meet to create a triangle shape. The pairs connect via a metal clip and they create two circles below the clip. On the inside directly behind the image of the woman is a piece of tape which has attached four pieces of white ribbon. Around the whole inside, writing is visible between the layer of the lampshade and the paper.

2023.001.01b: Table Lamp
The base of the table lamp is a white ceramic base which resembles a pinecone – there are four rows of “petals” and at the top of the pinecone are vertical lines. The bottom of the base has a large circular hole and the inside is hollow. Above the ceramic base, there is a cylindrical silver metal piece attached to the top of the base. The metal piece has one smaller circular part with a larger part attached on top. The upper part has an horizontal black plastic cylinder about one-third from the bottom which extends through the centre of the cylinder and out the opposite side. The top of the upper metal piece is partly hollow (up until just above the black plastic piece) with circular ridges going around multiple times. At the bottom of the ceramic base, coming out of a circular hole on one side is a yellowish-white power cord. It runs from the bottom of the metal piece and through the hollow ceramic base before exiting. The power cord looks like it has two attached rods and at the end is a rounded flat triangle piece with two rectangular gold pieces sticking out.
