I grew up fascinated with the human face, and could always be found, pencil in hand, sketching and drawing portraits of family and friends. My passion for art and the human form has taken me on an incredible journey, from the RCMP to Forensic Artistry. Regardless of where my creative journey has taken me, I love to be behind a canvas and painting. This is where I shine and where my abundant love of life comes through most engagingly. I give ‘voice’ to nature and its inhabitants; that is, inspiration to the intricate, detailed and fascinating subjects I portray. A pause of wonder in the privileged moments I have captured.
I use acrylic paints to create highly defined, three-dimensional works on canvas. I’m inspired by the colour, wildness and the creativity of nature and the forms it represents.
I hope my works create excitement and give the viewer pause to connect and feel that which is being evoked: innocence, spirit and soul.
