As a painter and jeweller, I have been strongly influenced by my two-year naturalist experience as ‘Artist in the Park’ at Presqu’ile Provincial Park, where my garden and botanical art were first expressed. In addition to painting animals, people, aquascapes and landscapes, many of my works also express inner landscapes. In 2018, I began to incorporate poured painting techniques into my creations.
My work has won awards at juried shows and have also been hung in the Expressions, Parrot Gallery (most recently 2018) and Belleville Art Association Juried Shows, all in Belleville; Art in the County, Picton and in the Impresario Gallery, Cobourg. I have also participated in Art in the Community in Belleville, Picton and Brighton as well as produced work for the Quinte Reclamation Project and various other causes and events. I also enjoy participating in the Picton Horticultural Show and the Ontario Regional Horticultural Show. I am a long-time participate of the PEC Studio Tour and Rednersville Road Studio Tour.
I am a member of the Quinte Arts Council, Prince Edward County Art Council and the Belleville Art Association, and also volunteer and sponsor the Quinte United Immigrant Services and was a previous member of the Quinte Arts Council Board of Directors.
