Artist's Statement:

Art has always been a part of my life.  After many years sharing my knowledge and love of art, I am now able to dedicate more time to my passion for paint and colour.  My undeniable urge to paint gives way to occasional forays back into the world of fibre arts and a constant desire to keep learning.  I have had the privilege of learning and being influenced by many great artists in British Columbia, Hawaii, Arizona and Oregon.  I will continue to be a lifelong learner as well as an artist and teacher.
