Location Brampton, Ontario, Canada
Introduction Living and working in Latin America fostered my appreciation of colour, texture & the drama of contrasts - strong influences in my hand made prints and paintings. Making art for me, like exercise, is health & sanity preserving, balancing life stresses; providing another richly varied voice for expression. I love to experiment with my art - combining methods and media, see and appreciate the artistic visions and creativity of other artists, see others, especially children, and myself having fun, enjoying making art.
