Nature and the process of creation and destruction are the constant subjects and themes of my work. Using mixed media on paper, I build images of nature to dissect, alter and reassemble. My current process allows the image to retain it’s integrity while also revealing the picture in shifted tiny fractions. The exposed components ask a person to move in closer and slow down ‘as you would in nature’ to appreciate the details; the building blocks hidden within the ‘big picture’.

“I investigate nature’s creations during the planning and building process and then I investigate my own creations during the destruction and rebuilding. Dissecting is like zooming in to see the pixels that make up the picture on a screen or the Ben-Day dots that colour in a printed
Cartoon.” Valuing resourcefulness and unconventional techniques, I am driven to experiment; to push and blend method and media, abstraction and design. Creative trials produce a growing variety of directions and aesthetics that I move around in. The results are ever-changing, but the foundational process remains grounded, as it does in nature: create, destroy, create. My techniques and applications include, but are not limited to, those used in fashion design, weaving, drafting, photography, graphic design, film editing, wood burning and carpentry. I grew up in Carp, Ontario and after having lived in Toronto, Ottawa and Los Angeles USA, I am based in Vancouver, BC, Canada. -
