Artist Statement
I have been creating since I was a young child. I am inspired by walks in nature, insects, wildlife, flowers, and especially the moon which is found in most of my pieces. I like to work with dried flowers and vintage black and white photography.
Art history has always fascinated me and I enjoy exploring new and older style artists techniques.
I am a mixed media artist. I work with alcohol inks, oil, acrylics, found objects, foliage and yes even insects! I returned to collage work during the lockdowns, posting art pieces from the absurdist collage club prompts on Instagram and have sold some of these pieces.
I am proud to have been born and raised in Sudbury, surrounded by our beautiful lakes and a great community that supports and encourages local artists. I create art in a small studio cabin by the water in the summer, and in my home studio.
My work has been exhibited at Les Galeries du Nouvel-Ontario (GNO), at Word Cafe at the Greater Sudbury downtown library in November 2023, and within my community. I am a regular contributor of painted Adirondack chairs to the Sudbury-Manitoulin Children’s Foundation and a member of the Sudbury Visual Artists group.
