I live in Port Credit and feel gratitude each day for the serenity and beauty of my surrounding or being inspired by the vibrance of downtown.


I have been painting for over 25 years in watercolours and acrylics and continue to explore and learn with many talented Ontario artists.
I describe myself as an "eclectic" artist I love variety, and my work reflects my travels both near and far, land and sea scapes flora, nature sometimes abstract and commissions.


Several years ago I joined with other artists known as "Painting Ladies" and we have exhibited successfully as a group or solo in local exhibits, community functions, stores and galleries throughout the GTA.
I love to create, to sit with a blank canvas to see what unfolds and reveals itself, to be lost in time and to have captured a piece of art that can be shared and enjoyed by others.
