Living in the Shadows is an abstract painting representing life since Covid. Our lives have been turned upside down – we’re still living colorful, joyful & connected lives … but the color, joy and connections are not as vibrant and strong… life feels more like we are living in the shadow of what our lives were like pre-Covid. |
My paint brush is my voice – the paint is the expression! I'm passionate
about painting in a 'diagonal' fashion in a 'parallel' world using loose brush
work and color that is a blend of impressionism and abstract. I want the
viewer to feel a connection to my paintings - to experience an emotional
reaction that is personal and unique to them.
I grew up in the small community of Tsawwassen and started painting
when I was 10 years old. I’ve always found painting to be a wonderful
escape from my 'other' life - a place where I lose all sense of anything
else that may be going on - it's just me and my easel present in that moment!
I spent 15 years as a graphic artist where I developed my strong sense
of composition, color & balance of negative/positive space. Even though
I learned a lot, I found the graphic art world to be a bit 'boring' - it lacked
the excitement of surprise! I've continued through my artist career to study
and take workshops in order to further develop my skills.
I specialize in commissioned paintings of special occasion flowers to last a
lifetime and impressionistic visions to fit your personal & professional environment.
