Prairie Girl at Heart

Manitoba born and raised, I spent my childhood exploring the wide open spaces of the Interlake region.  As a keen observer of nature, birds and wildlife, they are regularly featured in my artwork.  I love being outside.  I mainly work in oil, watercolour, and ink.  My artistic expression is not limited to canvas.  While travelling I always bring along something to sketch with.  It creates a greater connection to the place I'm visiting.   I now make my home in coastal British Columbia with my family.
