West Wind Ranch Creations

 Our "Ranch" is located in South Western Ontario, overlooking the Big Otter Creek valley.  It is a small piece of land severed off of the original 64 acre family farm. Mike's great grandfather Osias, built our house in the very early 1900's. This is an awesome piece of God's country!

We have access to many trails meandering through the woods, along side the Big Otter Creek, streams, ponds and fields.

In the quiet - you get to see one of the many whitetail deer, wild turkey, and all other types of critters...or sit on the creek bank and fish for rainbow trout...or just jump in to cool off on one of the hot humid days!!!   

Also, there are a few acres of pasture & hay for our rare breeds of horses, cattle, sheep, and other livestock - for which we are constantly expanding the fencing!

And we are only a few minutes from big sandy beaches along the shores of the Great Lake, Lake Erie! We can buy fresh perch daily down at Port Burwell. Or go watch the sun set over the glassy waters in the evening. Its so peaceful and tranquil. Not a bustling port by any means!

Our Ranch is simple, somewhat rustic, and a constant "work in progress". And that's okay with us!

Who We Are 

Mike and Jacqueline Kinsey welcome you to the "West Wind Ranch Creations" website. 

It is always a work in progress, so be sure to check in with us now and again!  

We decided on the name "West Wind Ranch Creations" from the family ties and influences we have out "west" in British Columbia and Alberta, together with our "creative" nature that we love to explore.   

Mike spends his weekends working on this "work in progress"; building and repairing fences, barns, cutting hay etc.

The "Ranch" also inspires our creative side.

Jacqueline spends her days working with the Miniature Horses, raising and selling the rare Partridge Chantecler Chickens, and painting and marketing her Original Fine Art. We also do a bit of photography and build unique picture frames from barn wood and other recycled materials.

But the main passion we share together, is our faith in God. In everything we do, we strive to show His Glory and Grace in our lives as we are learning to follow His will and not our own. We have learned that when we give Him the reins, He takes care of EVERYTHING. He sustains us if we put Him first in everything we do.

We hope that you will enjoy our website...

Mike & Jacqueline Kinsey.  

  You have made known to me the path of life;    You fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand.

                    Psalm 16:11 

Hope you enjoy your visit!

The Ranch also inspires our "creative" side...

 This is a cropped version of a painting I've done called "The Gray's Dance". I attended the International Arabian Horse Show in London Ontario one year and snapped some photos of the horses entering the ring. They had to come down a hallway , like a long tunnel and they would get all fired up! It was exciting and I wanted to capture that excitement and movement! Many of my paintings have a 3-D quality to them just because I use some molding paste to build up texture. I invite the viewer to actually reach out and touch my paintings...so this painting is better in real life; the edges of the horse's flared nostrils are actually ridges built up...you can feel them and see them stand out from the surface of the painting. This original painting is available for purchase.
