"I have always believed in the resilience and courage of the human spirit, our ability to create change in our lives, and our need for compassion and connection. My work as an educator and Art Therapist, with children and adults, has only strengthened this belief. I think that these are the values that I bring to my work as an artist: In my work, I explore the relationships between colours, textures and shapes; responding to what I see; and often using a subtractive approach to find an image or theme in the layers of work. I love to work on canvas, paper, and cradleboard using acrylics or a mixed media approach: collage, paints, inks, etc. Favourite subjects include the human form, florals, landscapes, the “everyday”, and purely abstract."
