ABOUT ARTIST CURRENTLY ON DISPLAY

I am very happy to show some of my larger pieces at  Ascend Salon.  I hope my piece enhance the atmosphere David and Robyn have created with their organic touches.  

I have been a resident of Penticton for the past 2 and half years- since retirement from my 30 year career in commercial interiors.   

My I began my art life doing plein air of the Pacific Coast Peninsula- halfway between Powell River and Lund, BC.  My medium was an acrylic paint kit and a large piece of plywood. Without being aware and having had no training, I learned by painting the same ocean view; seeing, but not knowing, how time affects colour. 

That was in 2006, and since then my art has gone through many changes.  First and foremost, I get to paint whenever the urge arises.  My favourite style is expressionism- where colour and form meet.  In this collection, I have included one whimsical giraffe named Chloe, and a old nag named Sadie.  The larger pieces are fairly current and a bit of throwback from the coast art I started my art life doing.  

I hope you enjoy my work.
