I am a West Coast artist living on Vancouver Island.

I’ve always had a love and connection with trees and Mother Earth, and I find that this propels me to create even more; to honor the life that she gives and shares. I love to walk through the woods touching the trees and smelling the air. And to wander the shoreline, investigating tidal pools, and searching out what the storms left on the beach.  

My main medium is acrylic paint combined with coloured pencils, and markers. I draw trees using graphite and dabble with watercolours.  Creating gives me a freedom from the daily life as well as negative thoughts. There is meditation  when I’m at the easel, a comfort. This is especially true when I’m creating mandalas with trees and Celtic knotwork.

I am primarily self-taught, having taken a few local art classes.
