Raised in Toronto, Ontario & having a cottage in Muskoka, I have always been captivated by the regions stunning natural beauty. With a background in Architecture and Interior Design, I bring foundational drawing skills and design principles into my creative practice. Years of education and practice in Watercolour and Drawing underpin my refined techniques. These experiences collectively enrich my artwork, infusing each piece with a blend of inventiveness and meticulous craftsmanship. Hiking and being on the water observing the natural beauty of Southern Ontario continues to be my primary source of inspiration, driving me to reflect its unique landscapes through my art. I have active memberships with Artist Network, (Toronto), AOTC (Arts on the Credit) and (MA&C) Muskoka Arts and Crafts. I participate in many art shows in Toronto and Muskoka.

As an artist inspired by the dynamic landscapes of Southern Ontario, I create mixed media works that capture the regions diverse topography. My art journey spans breathtaking vistas of the Niagara Escarpment to the rugged beauty of the Canadian Shield in Muskoka. Subjects like skies, trees, vibrant fall colours, and water reflections ignite my creativity invoking resonance with viewers, eliciting memories and emotions. My creative process incorporates Watercolour/Ink Intense Pencils, Acrylic Ink, and Pen & Ink, adding intricate details, contours, and textures. Charcoal on canvas allows me to explore subtle to dramatic values within the landscape, creating a calming atmosphere. An Air Brush aids in crafting variegated skies and underpainting colours, enhancing efficiency. Meticulous use of precise ratios for Acrylic Ink mixing, combined with Pen & Ink work, adds depth and vibrancy to my landscapes. The distinctive approach of executing charcoal landscapes on canvas instead of traditional paper further sets my work apart.
