About
I’m an abstract artist working in mixed media. The beaches, forests, and neighbourhoods around me inspire my art. Sometimes light and peaceful, other times wild and full of depth.
I work intuitively, not knowing where my ideas will lead - or how long it will take until a painting is finished. From my career working as a graphic designer in the corporate world, I’m influenced by organized graphic elements and patterns, and the interruption of layers of paint, collage, text and lines. I love adding a sense of mystery, hidden words, and maybe a little irreverence. Inspiration is found in the smallest details, from moss growing on the stone walls to the play of light and shadow under the trees.
Living in West Vancouver, British Columbia I gather ideas from walks along the beach, cycling along winding roads and hikes in our woods.
