I was raised in Calgary and have spent the last 30 years in Alberta and Ontario. After a fulfilling career in broadcast journalism and corporate communications I credit my move to the beautiful Okanagan Valley and Predator Ridge as the motivation behind my shift from interpreting my world through writing, to drawing and painting. 
 
When I paint I’m totally immersed in the moment and lose many hours unaware of my surroundings focused on my canvas, the marks I make and the feelings they evoke. When the painting is finished I’m often exhausted, covered in paint but exhilarated.  

From beneath layers of texture and colour a story begins to emerge; apart from any intention on my behalf, and quite arresting in its intensity. I’m very grateful for the ‘stories’ I’m able to create; and the pleasure they bring to others.  
My work is recognized for strong expressive strokes, emotional energy and dramatic blends of colour; and can be found in national and international juried exhibitions and commercial galleries across North America.  
​
Even away from my studio I'm immersed in art as Past President of the Federation of Canadian Artists (North Okanagan Chapter), a Director of the Arts Council North Okanagan and an Elected member of the Society of Canadian Artists (Toronto, ON) and  NAP Contemporary Fine Arts (USA).
