Brief Bio -

I  moved to Toronto for art school at 20  and never left. I travel frequently in search of imagery, nuance and adventure. I studied fine art at Three Schools of Art, and Toronto's Art Centre at Central Tech and have had numerous group and solo exhibits, in juried and indie contexts, and exhibit locally and internationally.

Artist Statement -

"I draw to see; I paint to discover."  My work is largely intuitive, figurative and expressionistic, intended to capture a feeling, imperfect memory or observation.  The motif of 'no faces' expresses the universal and the unknown. For the last ten years I have worked primarily in series, exploring  themes of current interest. The above images are from my Asia Series.
