     There is a visual element to the collective subconscious – we attribute meaning to colour, form, symbol and number. My approach is to allow the energy of images to flow through from that universal source, in order to present a reflection of some aspect of inner reality. The joy is the journey of discovery.

     I’ve been excited about art for as long as I can remember. I was taught and inspired by Audrey Riller and Mary Valentine at St. John’s-Ravenscourt School in Winnipeg. I later continued with fine art courses at Queen’s University, Alberta College of Art, and University of Manitoba.

     I recently ‘returned to the fold’ as an artist, working mostly in oil pastel. Since 2008 I’ve had 3 solo shows, as well as participating in “Stone Age” at the St. Norbert Arts Centre. I am represented by Gallery Lacosse in Winnipeg.
