ABOUT ME...

I grew up in Ottawa, Canada's capital city. I now live in Castleford, in the Ottawa Valley on the Ottawa River. An inspirational beautiful setting, very calming, soul centering, & perfectly serene. All elements conducive to creativity at it's finest.

2020 – Life Transformation #2        
Graphic design begins.
​Over 2018-2019 I delved deep into a intense graphic design college diploma program. It was an amazing opportunity to elevate my creativity with the latest in digital technology. 


 ​
​I work with Photoshop, Illustrator & InDesign.
I enjoy creating fantasy designs full of whimsical detail. The kind that draws you in and invites you stay awhile.

​2002 - Life Transformation #1 
​Life as a fine artist begins.
​
​
Over the previous challenging 2 years, I came to the realization that committing to the creation of art on a full time basis was the only soulful satisfying solution.  
I work with vivid acrylics, brushes and palette knives. Vibrant abstracts, over-sized florals, textured Canadian vistas and whimsical kaleidoscope fantasies are distinctly recognizable of  what is described as my unique joyful style and technique. 
​
​Many of Ottawa’s remarkable landmarks have been immortalized in my more fanciful designs. A curvaceous signature of the Art Deco influence is often present in my abstract work. This characteristic swirl is representative of the spiritual evolution that led me to my chosen career as an artist
.
