“I have always been an observer.  I can trace my fascination with observing nature to my very early exposure to camping with my family. Those camping experiences have given me the opportunity to live through my senses.  I express that through painting. I count myself lucky to have a skill that allows such expression.   
 
I am an Impressionist oil painter after the 19th century French Impressionists and Tom Thomson.  I explore how light presents the shapes and colour that nature provides.  My subjects run from traditional landscapes to the less obvious subjects I find in my travels.  I am largely self taught.  I also teach beginner and intermediate oil painting.”
