Artist Statement
Painting has been a lifelong passion for me and I have become proficient in all mediums and enjoy their special qualities. As a professional artist of 30 years, I have had the opportunity to show my work locally, nationally and internationally and have been honored with many awards, both for my art work as well as for my work in the art community. I belong to many prestigious art societies and have worked on their boards. Sharing my knowledge of painting has been a special joy to me for several decades. I teach classes and workshops at many levels and conduct paintings holidays on land and at sea in Canada and abroad.
