2022 and my ambition for

less environmental impact and more meaning for everyone

Meet The Artist

Several years ago, I began a rejuvenating ritual of creating art. Once a week, I would make a cup of tea, close the door to the outside world, and paint. It’s something I continue to this day, as it brings me immense joy.

My work has a strong form and curve with contrasting light and shadow; it is simple yet dramatic. Using a ridiculously small paintbrush, I hand-paint my image with white acrylic paint. There is no tracing or transferring of an image; I paint freehand from photos I have taken locally. As a fortunate Sunshine Coast, BC, resident, I have an unlimited source of inspiration and subject matter through nature.

Over the years, my pieces have evolved. I now use Canadian Birchwood panels painted with black primer; if you look closely, you can see the wood grain, which adds texture to every piece. I also strive to give my art longevity and use locally sourced and sustainable materials. I have changed my packaging, and I’m participating in like-minded events. This commitment to the environment is reflected in my original pieces and brings an even more significant impact for all to appreciate.
