About the Artist

After graduating from George Brown's graphic design program in Toronto, I have worked as a graphic designer for over 11 years. Just recently I have begun to put more emphasis on my true passion, which is painting. Besides taking some painting classes at both Dundas Valley School of Art and Mohawk College, I am mostly self-taught. I currently live in Hamilton with my husband and 4 year old daughter.

Artist's Statement

When I paint, I give myself no restrictions and allow myself to just paint what I feel. I often paint about issues that are present in my life in hopes that others will relate to my artwork in their own personal way. There are many opinions about what makes true art. My personal belief is that the only requirement of true art is inspiration. My hope is to one day be able to paint every day, and inspire others with my artwork.
