Committed to creating artworks that evoke intense emotions that we can all relate to, my heavy use of texture and subtle layers of paint often offer the viewer a moment of pause. I create gestural shapes and moods that make people reflect and feel tranquil at the same time.
Since 2017, I have been a full time artist after I decided I could still heal people through art rather than physically by being a nurse, which I did for 14 years. 22 years in total, I have been honoured to adorn the walls of hundreds of family homes, offices and commercial spaces all over Canada, USA and Mexico.
Travelling is my first love (33 countries thus far) and there is no doubt that my adventures abroad influence the shape, textures and colours of the paintings I create in between trips. Mesmerized by the moss on a stick on one of our hikes, cracks on a wall of a 100 year old castle or the way paint is falling off the side of a building in some foreign town, you will often find me capturing moments on my phone to reference later when I come back to the canvas.
My work has been written about in a variety of publications like Boulevard Magazine, Vancouver Home and across the internet on sites like Fresh Magazine, Vancouver is Awesome and SD Voyager.
Along side IDS Vancouver and the BC Home and Garden Show, each year I produce my own solo art exhibition that always offers a unique twist to the traditional art show experience. Aimed to make everyone feel like they belong in the art world, my goal moving forward is to continue producing beautiful art that tells a story, that is attainable, affordable and something that you are proud to own.
