Happy to have my vibrant painting 'Entrance' in the FCA Active Members Exhibition on Granville Island, Jan. 11-23. Copy and paste the following link to take a look at the wide array of wonderful artwork, and if you have a chance, enjoy the show at the gallery. https://federationgallery.com/exhibit/2022_active_member_exhibition/3258

For me as the artist, each new painting is an entrance into a new experience. Through spontaneity and intention, and in creating a dialogue with the painting, the image emerges. For the viewer, I invite you to enter into your own experience of the painting.

The award winning pieces from the Paint the Train competition will be displayed and hosted by the Langley Arts Council at the Langley Civic Centre

The MONUMENTAL online exhibition is NOW OPEN!!

The exhibition explores our perception of size and scale when viewing a work of art by manipulating the environment in which it is presented for viewing. Does our appreciation and understanding of a work of art change based on how big or small we perceive it to be? Does scale affect how “important” we presume the art to be? These are some of the questions this exhibition aims to explore.
