Art has always been a part of my life. There are photos of me at five years old at my easel, but I really started acrylic painting at 11. My high school art teachers built up my confidence and encouraged me to have a career in the art field. In my paintings, I try to make things look as realistic as possible with a lot of detail. I’m always observing my surroundings wondering how I would go about painting an object or landscape, the lines of a building or how light and shadows fall. My process starts with a colour combination, an interesting every day item or one of the thousands of photographs I have taken. I graduated from the Advertising Art Program at Fanshawe College in London. I participate with the Art In The Park Group at Springbank Park and I am also a member of the London Community Artists.
