I am an award winning artist with a design degree from Langara College in Vancouver BC, Canada. I studied fine arts in Toulouse, France at l’Ecole des Beaux Arts de Tournefeuille, and continue to study through workshops with prominent artists I am inspired by. I have exhibited in numerous group and solo shows and have received recognition and awards for my work. My paintings in oils and acrylics are in private and corporate collections in Canada, the United States, and France. I continue to create still life, landscape and jazz music themed paintings from my studio in Victoria BC, Canada. |

My paintings are inspired by my emotional reaction to objects of beauty, whether manmade or in nature. The light play, colour, pattern or mood of a scene draw me to want capture that moment in time in paint. My passion is to create a perfect balance of realism and painterly interpretation in my works. |
