I find the linear forms of a tree branch very inspiring to draw. The natural contours and twisting forms of nature, allow the artist to both interpret and follow the natural form in the drawing.
My artistic journey started in 2000 when the desire to create art became a passion. After graduating from the Ontario College of Art and Design I made Toronto my home. From small sketches to large scale projects, my art is a highly-personal reflection of myself and my interactions with the world around me.
I’ve been fortunate to have participated in group exhibitions, as well as exhibiting in a solo capacity, which has solidified my reputation as a professional artist. I continue to explore creatively every day! My paintings have been exhibited in Italy at the Primo Piano Gallery, in Miami at Art Takes Miami, and in Toronto art galleries.
ARTIST’S STATEMENT
My body of work is based primarily on painting and abstract expression. Themes in my work include nature, the environment, memory and personal experience. When developing an artwork my artistic process combines both utilizing reference images such as sketches, studies and photographs as well as trusting in my creative instinct. Texture, layering, colour and brushwork are all important formal elements in my paintings. As an artist I will often re-visit themes and return to further develop concepts that remain at the center of my work. I see art as empowering and transformative for both the artist and the viewer.
