Biography
I was very fortunate to have two excellent art teachers in high school. Although there are several artists in my family, I pursued a career with horses, operating a successful business, training, showing and coaching. I was also a long listed rider on the Canadian Dressage Team.

In 2004, my ongoing interest in colour , and light effects outdoors, led me to resume painting. Continuing to further my education, I have taken several workshops with artists in oils, and joined the Schomberg School of Art. I also began taking courses in Digital photography, which enabled me to go back and capture the many sights I have seen along my path.

I have painted several commissioned works, sold my pieces privately and am currently hired by some local businesses to use my art in their advertising.

My goal is to capture the special light that can create a feeling, or mood, from a scene and translate that feeling into my oil paintings.
