Semi Abstracted Spirited Landscapes - including The Canadian Rocky Mountains, Newfoundland, PEI and of course Ontario scenes. Commissions available.

Vienna and Prague always a favourite too. Early in my youth I developed a love for drawing. Everyday objects, faces and scenes would inspire me to draw and revealed to me an uncomplicated, quiet, happy world. Originally from Ottawa, coming to Toronto to study at OCAD was a fantastic opportunity for growth. Working for 20 years as a graphic designer and running my own studio has proven to be the tr

aining ground that developed a strong work ethic and solid tool box. The designer in me loves simple shape and bold colour while the ever evolving painter in me explores light, rhythm and personal connection. Transitioning out of the design world into the fine art world has been rewarding. I continue to play with a careful balance between my intellectual and intuitive self. Whether I am painting a portrait, a stunning landscape in Whistler, a street scene in Vienna or the ruins of an old stone Church in Nevis, painting allows me the luxury to slow down and find the strange and familiar.

Square or CIrcle?

Shape speaks volumes. Circle symbolizes eternity, unity, the endless cycle of nature and spiritual heavens. Square symbolizes stability, balance, safety and the physical realm.

Cleaning my Sink.....

Part of my practice is "Housekeeping".
Cleaning my studio sink is a time to reflect on what I have made and what I am planning to create next.

Silver Glen 16 x 16

This is an expression of the beauty of a summer evening on the lake.
My Ch*****ne Bubbles have organically evolved into "Energy Signatures". The moment of the smallest measurement of time when an energy crosses over and a new energy arrives.

When to take a Stop?

I am still refining my creative process and knowing when to stop is challenging. Working in a series allows me to dance between several paintings and show up with a fresh a eye and playfulness in my brush. I will live with these in my office an "listen" to see if they are calling out for any changes.

The Art of "The Doodle"

Doodling is something we naturally do as a child and somehow forget to do as an adult. It allows us to keep our brains engaged, relieve stress and process information. I learned this discipline of filling a page when I was a graphic designer. It is an organic and fun way to tap into wonder and curiosity....
