Hello! Thanks for visiting my webpage.
I am an Artist and Art Educator from Toronto, Ontario. After earning a Fine Art History, Honours degree at York University and a Bachelor of Education from the University of Toronto, I decided to go on an adventure and to teach English in Japan! I thought I'd be away for 1 year at most. I completed a Masters at Goldsmiths and have lived in the UK since. Recently I have been made a Fellow with the Royal Society of Arts and I am keen to make change by helping to ensure that 'Art of All by All' approach also a belief firmly held at Watts Gallery and Artists' Village where I am a Trustee. I am based in Haslemere which borders three stunning counties; Surrey, Hampshire and West Sussex. My paintings are based on memories, travel, nature and whatever takes my fancy! Thanks for visiting!
