ARTIST’S STATEMENT
My current paintings combine watercolour and Acrylic painting, sometimes with the addition of mixed media. My artwork focuses on the balance between the natural and urban environments, and most of them feature birds seen in Toronto. I use colours in a vibrant and exciting way, often alluding to the ability of birds to see ultraviolet light, which humans cannot access. Birds don’t have the same binocular vision that humans do, so some of my work has areas of exaggerated perspective and three-dimensionality contrasted with areas that appear more two dimensional.
