My work centers on my lifelong love and envolvement with horses, my portfolio
also includes a variety of paintings of dogs, cats, people, still-lifes & landscapes.
Soft pastels are my “go to” medium, but I also enjoy creating paintings in acrylics,
graphite, oil and scratchboard. I am proud of my artwork that has been
recognized or received awards over the years in regional, national and global art
competitions. I am a Signature Member of Pastel Artists Canada and an active
member of Federation of Canadian Artists National and Calgary Chapter. 

In 2015, I was one of the Airdrie area artists who participated in the Western
Canada collection of Imago Mundi Project born from an idea of Luciano Benetton
in 2006, Imago Mundi Collection is today an encyclopedic catalog of the global
contemporary artistic production. 

I plan to continue to develop my realism style, playing with bold colour and
striving to create work that has been described as “touchable” and “alive”. 
The biggest compliment I receive from my customers is tears of joy when they
see their beloved pet come to life once again in their commissioned portrait.

I had been involved in the horse racing industry from British Columbia to Ontario,
over the better part of my life. I am now semi retired, but still work in the
printing/graphics industry as a graphic designer.

When not in my studio, I enjoy long walks with our 2 dogs, Sparky and Dolly,
exploring the parks and paths in and around Airdrie and beyond.
For artistic inspiration, I enjoy photographing beautiful scenery and local
equestrian events when on day trips with my husband in and around the
Foothills, Mountains and prairies of Southern Alberta.
