Bio

I am a southern Ontario-based artist with over twenty years' experience painting abstract and nature landscapes.

​

Early watercolour work turned into acrylic painting and mixed media expressions. Recently mosaic portraiture has been included in my practice. 

​

I tell the story of a leaf, a flower, or an expression on a face. Each piece gets its own palette - sometimes a creative reach of within one main colour or opposites only to express a laugh or a doldrum. I take my queue from the variations in nature's colours, how they change in the sunlight and her shadows, how the seasons influence the same point in nature, year over year. I interpret the lay of the land, the hills, the flats, and the shorelines.
