I paint for the love of it. I am a self-taught artist, still learning learning learning.
I have been surrounded by artistic people all my life. My siblings are gifted artists, one is a well respected scrimshander. I live at Kinookimaw, Saskatchewan where I am happily married to a very talented woodworker who also does beautiful sketches and drawings.
I thought I was lucky that so many people around me were so talented. Then one afternoon I sat down and painted with my daughter. We painted just for the sheer enjoyment of it. And my passion for painting grew. I painted on anything I could get my hands on. Since that day I have tried many forms of painting, but have settled into small format art.
Saskatchewan's motto is "land of living skies". My paintings usually center around the ever changing beauty of the Western Sky. I draw on this beauty to create my small works of art.
This year I have been very fortunate to be a finalist in the category Miniatures in the 2008 Artist Choice Awards

And in 3 categories for the Year's Best ACEO awards. It is such a thrill to be nominated in these groups.
