A graduate of the Ontario College of Art, I live and work in Toronto, Canada. I have been exhibiting my art professionally for over twenty years, with paintings in public and private collections across Canada, as well as in the United States, Holland, Belgium, and Germany. I have participated in exchange exhibitions in both Mexico and Japan. Painting, for me, is not bound by an initial concept because it is not a linear process. A painting requires time, space, and introspection. It evolves from its own history, ultimately revealing itself with a kind of sudden, ironic presence.
