About Artist:
Artist Statement
I strive to move beyond realism. As I create, I draw on imagination and memory and let the Canadian landscape unfold on my canvas with both real and imagined elements. My joy and challenge as an artist lies in striking a harmonious balance between realism and abstraction. My expressionist work reflects a stylized approach and features bold colours and whimsical compositions. With each painting, I seek to express a perfect moment in nature that speaks deeply to the viewer -- a meditative place that resides between energy and movement, stillness and quiet. I am drawn to these ever present elements in the landscape."

About Artwork:
Full of sights, sounds and movement, this imaginary forest is a place to dream and meditate. The close up perspective invites intimacy and immersion,and you can almost feel the cool water cascading from high above into a secret canyon below. This harmonious painting offers an intriguing blend of abstract and realism. Whimsical line and color are balanced by tight composition and discrete shapes.
