I am a Canadian painter and photographer.  I live and learn on the Saskatchewan prairies and paint expressive landscapes inspired by the emotional experience of nature. My work explores light, movement, and landscape through expressive colour.  Whether walking along the riverbanks near my home or kayaking in the northern lakes, I'm drawn to the quiet beauty of the outdoors - and to capturing how it feels to be there. With a Ph.D. in Human Physiology and a background as a researcher, grant writer, and educator, I bring curiosity, discipline, and storytelling into my creative practice.  I'm a lifelong learner, and studying the principles of art - like colour theory, composition, and the creative process - has been just as fulfilling as my scientific pursuits.  Creativity has become the thread that weaves the different parts of my life together  - and painting is how I share that joy.

Thank you for visiting my site.  I hope that my work invites you to pause, breathe, and reconnect with beauty and wonder.
