About
Gabriola Island professional studio since 1996. Featured in Gabriola’s most beautiful homes and widely collected. It is my response to the energy of the living world that drives the engine of my art making. The interrelationship between nature, art and the human spirit is the focus of my continuous exploration. The mindful act of constructing/deconstructing the surface, inscribing organic rhythms, and layering colour, creates a distillation of experience. Intuitive, expressive, sensual and transitory, my abstracts are reflecting equivalents in nature. Themes of landscape and memory are evocative of a moment caught in time.
