My heart beats for the mountains and forests of Banff. It's in these rugged and serene landscapes that I truly feel whole. Hiking through towering pines, camping beside turquoise lakes, and simply breathing in the fresh mountain air fuels my creativity. I translate these feelings into my art and experiment away with surface materials, textures, earthy elements, and clay.

I grew up in Winnipeg, and spent countless summers camping at the lake. After University, marriage and a move to Calgary, I balanced a corporate career and being a mom to some great kids (now 17 & 20). Over the years, I’ve nurtured a passion for art, honing my craft with late night experiments and all weekend art fests. Over the last three years, I’ve been nourishing both my creativity and my deep connection to nature, and it’s with this renewed focus, and guidance from The Artist's Way, along with some very special people, that I’ve found the confidence to believe in myself and share my art with the world.
