Art from the Heart. Charming. Affordable. 
Much of it created with repurposed and recycled materials.

After years of teaching in secondary schools, I'm dedicating more time to my own art while continuing to teach in a variety of contexts. My 'super power' is teaching and building learning communities.

​​

My art practice is related to my history as a teacher in that I now have time to explore the many media and approaches I've been exposed to in my work. It is playful, and underpinned with a knowledge of composition, colour theory and art history. Media, colour and the sheer joy of playing with materials pull me in more than subject or idea. 

 

I'm a passionate advocate for access to art activity, art museums, arts education and art communities. I am a member of CARFAC Ontario and ofThe Oakville Art Society where I  help with art shows, fund raisers and other community events,  and participate in group Open Houses, juried shows, studio time and art classes, and teach.

 

Many of the paints, supports, boards and frames I use and share with the people I work with  are sourced second hand. 

​

My art is for sale. Check the gallery. I also make it available for public spaces.
