Artist Statement

I view my art as a window on a brighter and better world. Varied experiences, life on a farm, living in different parts of the world and a positive approach to nature all contribute to my work. Although life presents many challenges that cannot be ignored, I choose to focus on what gives me pleasure, using both the subtle and bright colours of nature to represent the continuum of life in a positive way. Acrylic and mixed media enable me to translate my ideas into reality and provide a sense of movement to my art. I enjoy sharing my art and I hope that what is so personal to me will bring happiness to others.
