I now practice art with my two children ages 2 and 4. We are cutting, pasting, sculpting, painting and drawing on everything around us (except the furniture).

Tiny Tiles
Creating these tiny wall batiks. These are all 4 x 4 “ and are mounted onto wood tiles. Right now my work table top is full and I’m waxing away. I’m particularily busy creating these guys I call “dirtybits”. I draw them in hot wax, then paint them with dye.
Dirty Bits and Bags
I began studying art at the University of Regina, Saskatchewan where I was guided by amazingly generous and talented instructors. When the chance to live and work in Japan presented itself I jumped on the opportunity and left my studies in Regina, temporarily. I taught English in Yokohama and Tokyo for just over a year. It was life-changing. I returned to the U of R for one more year of growth and learning, only to seize yet another opportunity to move to Vancouver, BC. After transferring to Emily Carr School of Art and Design I graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree, majoring in Visual Art.
I have worked in Clay, Metal, Drawing, Sculpture, Mixed media- book drawings, projected images, fabric-sculpture and printmaking. Since graduating, drawing, painting and printmaking have been the main focus of my practice.
