I began oil painting at thirteen with later studies in Graphic Design, photography, portraiture, watercolour and printmaking. My paintings are influenced by living on lakes in northern Ontario and Quebec and travel experiences throughout North America and Europe. Several solo exhibitions have been generously supported through Ontario Arts Council Exhibition grants.

Acrylic painting on stretched canvas, watercolour and mixed media reflect a conscious awareness of our coexisting relationship with nature. I intuitively respond with emotive brush or palette knife and integrate other mediums or techniques that are essential to the evolving concept. My photography becomes a starting point and an integral reference to developing new artworks. The Entanglement Theory in quantum physics has influenced my creative process and interpretations of nature.
Water is a recurring element inspired by the reflected images and and translucent qualities of energy and light.
I strive to retain this transitional energy in my painting through emotive line and brushwork, exploring water's shifting perceptions of reality.
I want to express the spirit and emotional content of my surroundings, connecting to nature and a changing environment.
My watercolour and acrylic paintings reflect my connection with nature and the coexisting relationship and interconnections with the environment.
Water's reflective depth and translucency has inspired my need to explore the mysteries of fluctuating patterns and light. Light through water distorts and refracts images and combined with other external elements add to the complexity and shift in our perceptions of reality.
The intangible energy and spontaneous imagery stimulates my imagination and plays a vital role in my creative process. I intuitively recreate the fragmented imagery and linear trace elements through brush or palette knife on canvas or wood panel. My personal photography is often a reference and starting point for a new painting.
I find a greater freedom of interpretation as a result of observing the infinite complexity and fluidity of water reflections.
Water is my vehicle of expression.
