This is Me.
I am a visual storyteller and wilderness artist, living in Ottawa and rural Quebec.
I use rich acrylics to capture nature’s enchanting beauty- storytelling, bold colours, patterns and often humour bring my wilderness experiences and imaginations to life. My paintings are full of playful optimism, a direct reflection of who I am and my positive outlook on life.
My personal mandate is to connect as many people as possible to the beauty around us, that connection instilling a desire to embrace and protect our natural world.
I have always been immersed in art. I stepped into art education years ago when my daughter’s grade one teacher asked for my help. For the next few decades, I guided children into the world of Van Gogh, Gustav Klimt, Norval Morrisseau and countless others, while exploring my students’ own creativity. I thrived on the energy and optimism of my young artists. I hopefully inspired them; I know that they truly inspired me.
Changing careers mid-Covid, I took my passion for art, for people and for our natural environment, and embarked on my own creative journey exploring the wilderness and its wild inhabitants.
The energy and optimism continue, on canvas and in life.
