JUST GIVE ME MY CRAYONS AND I WILL BE HAPPY"

THIS IS SO TRUE FOR ME. HAPPINESS IS FOUND WITH CREATIVITY.   THE CREATIVE PROCESS IS SO SOOTHING TO MY SOUL, IT KEEPS ME GROUNDED AND CENTRED.

HAVING A CHILDHOOD LOVE OF DRAWING HAS LED ME TO BE THE SELF TAUGHT ARTIST I AM TODAY. I'M ALWAYS GROWING AND EXPLORING AS AN ARTIST. I STRIVE TO STAY OPEN AND LEARN NEW MEDIUMS, STYLES AND SUBJECTS. I BEGAN WITH GRAPHITE HYPERREALISM AND HAVE EVOLVED INTO PAINTINGS USING ACRYLIC, OIL AND WATERCOLOUR. A WIDE VARIETY OF SUBJECTS SPARKS MY INTEREST. MY WISH IS THAT EACH PERSON CAN FIND SOMETHING THAT RESONATES WITHIN MY WORK. IF MY ART WARMS YOUR HEART OR MAKES YOU SMILE MY GOAL IS ACCOMPLISHED.THIS IS SO TRUE FOR ME. HAPPINESS IS FOUND WITH CREATIVITY. THE CREATIVE PROCESS IS SO SOOTHING TO MY SOUL, IT KEEPS ME GROUNDED AND CENTRED.

Growing up with livestock on a mixed farm in south central Sask  and then raising  a family  on a farm in the northeast kept my love of animals strong.  Animal portraiture has always been one of my favourite subjects to create and explore as an artist. 

I HAVE BEEN COMMISSIONED TO DO COUNTLESS PIECES THE LAST 3 DECADES, PRESERVING SOMETHING MEANINGFUL, DEPICTING BEAUTY IN A RANGE OF WAYS. I AM ALWAYS CREATING ORIGINALS THAT CHANNEL MY OWN INSPIRATION, CREATING PRINTS OF THOSE THAT SPEAK TO OTHERS AND HAVE EMBARKED ON SEVERAL LARGE SCALE MURALS.

As a full time artist in the Melfort area with an in home studio called the "Artists Loft on the 44 Trail" 

my daughter Amber and I offer classes and host Paint Parties.
