I have always been fascinated by things that will lose their purpose, or have already lost their purpose.  Dead trees, historic buildings, and the sails on a sail boat hold particular interest as they all have stories to tell.

​

I began painting in Quebec and have continued to paint off and on after moving to Ontario.  I have been part of juried shows, as well as studio tours.  It is with the commissions that I get to push my learning further than I thought possible.  As a self taught artist, I still have much to learn and welcome the opportunities to stretch myself.

​

I enjoy drawing using Charcoal and paint crayons.  The majority of my paintings are acrylic and representational in nature.  I prefer using acrylics as I am able to manipulate them to be like water colours or to appear as if they were painted in oils.

​

I'm looking forward to getting back into the studio to find out what else I can learn about myself, my collection and my process.
