I have lived in Ontario most of my life. I am a nature lover, who canoes into the Canadian wilderness annually. I have spent hundreds of hours canoeing and camping into remote areas. I use a camera to capture my own images and impressions for my paintings. I am a self-taught oil and acrylic painter, with formal training in graphic arts. I love to paint nature in realistic and abstract ways. I am quite the realist on most days. But every once in a while I like to break all the rules |
and just throw paint on the canvas and use colors that aren't quite like the real thing. Just spending time feeling instead of thinking. Which I guess would be my rebel side. Or sometimes I blame it all on being a gemini. My hope is to give people the love I feel for nature, when viewing my images. I like to say a little piece of myself goes into each of my paintings. |
