I'm a self-taught artist hailing from the beautiful province of Ontario, Canada. After retiring from a career in graphic, web, and interface design, I discovered my passion for acrylic painting. I love, love, love painting animals and people, and I try to capture their essence by portraying them up close and personal. My artistic journey is all about finding my style by experimenting with complementary colours, bold hues, and looser, less detailed strokes. My ultimate goal is to create a heartfelt connection between you and my artwork.
I am proud to be affiliated with some amazing art associations such as the Ottawa School of Art, the Manotick Art Association, the Merrickville Arts Guild, and the North Grenville Arts Guild. My artwork has been showcased at some of the finest local venues like Cline House Gallery, Marianne van Silfhout Gallery, Gallery 55, Shenkman Art Centre, Heritage House Museum, the Ottawa School of Art Boutique, the Fulford Place Museum, The Art Factory and the Carleton Place Collective. I'm thrilled to have collectors of my art in Canada, the United States and Europe.
I am eager to continue my journey as an artist and to learn and grow constantly. I plan on attending numerous workshops and creating countless more paintings in the years to come.
Making art brings such joy to my life. Thank you for letting me share it with you!
