Artist Statement

Many things in life are overlooked or undervalued. The brilliance of a sunset, the taste of a homemade meal, and my focus; the presence of a blooming flower. I care for living things, pure things, things you can smell and touch. Things that invoke the senses and bring peace of mind. These things are often forgotten yet they have the power to bring happiness to so many lives.

Growing up on the Bruce Peninsula in Ontario I spent most of my time outdoors. I was drawn to nature and all it offered. I quickly realized my outlet in high school - paint, pencils and clay - was where I truly belonged. I studied everything from stained glass to pottery, mosaic tiles to pastels before I found my true niche, painting.

My paintings represent something in me, the part of me that believes nature offers the most beautiful things. These things, I wish to share.
