StatementI am a Canadian artist. My works show elements of abstraction, an impressionistic style with a hint of realism with use of oils, acrylics, watercolor and mixed media. I enjoy landscapes the most as well as still life.
Creating art is exciting to me. After getting my first easel I approached art with a passion and my soul was alive. Whether it's on canvas, paper or wood panel, art is a form of expression through one's being. It evolves and shifts with what life brings each year, as I and those around me go through our life's journeys. Art is the tool and fuel for the soul.
Translating any moment in time with color, light, and texture that can be shared with others is a joy. My goal is to let my paintings bring out what your journey is leading you to feel and use it to inspire your being.
