Artist Statement

I hope one or more of my paintings spark a joy in your heart as they do mine.

Biography

I grew up in Tatamagouche, NS until I left for school in 1986 and spent 30+ years in Ontario raising my family.
I was often in the home of my grandparents who were both very artistic and I grew to love art and creativity from them.
I dabbled in lots of different art forms over the years but it has been in the last few years that I have found my love of painting in watercolor. This was my grandmother’s favorite medium and we spent many hours reviewing books and discussing new ideas and paintings we were working on.
I love painting animals and landscapes as well as some portraits and still life on occasion. I am currently a member of the Truro Art Society, The Attic Painters as well as The Fraser (Northumberland Arts Council).
