Artist’s statement



“I have been a practicing artist for the past 14 years since graduating from The Ontario College of Art and Design. I’ve been involved in a number of exhibitions locally, namely, On The Edge – an artists group from Dundas, in which we visited and painted images from the surrounding Hamilton Region Conservation areas. The culmination of the project was the publication of On The Edge: A Shrinking Landscape (two of my paintings are included).”
