After studying geology at University I have always enjoyed using color to enhance communication of ideas. In my spare time I took courses from local artists including Molly Lamb Bobak, Brigitte Toole, and Fred Ross. Recently I have enjoyed participating in FSA courses with Glenn Priestley and Marie Fox.

Painting, for me, is a lot about having the freedom to explore materials, colours and the work of other artists. Oil painting provides a large range of possible results and allows me to explore the techniques used historically.

I enjoy painting a variety of subject and in a number of styles; I paint portraits, abstract figures and landscapes.

Since retiring in 2015, I have been able to enjoy painting in a way I could not before. I have been able to study historical and contemporary art in detail as a docent in the Beaverbrook Art Gallery. This has expanded my knowledge of artists and stimulated an interest in their approach to the visual arts.
