Artist Statement
Saltwire: Meet the Creators
Artistic and creative freedom feeds my soul and I am grateful everyday that I have the ability to create. Capturing moments in time, expressed on canvas, hardened in paint, leaving a visual trail of my artistic journey through my skill building practice and my exploration of Nova Scotia, the extraordinary place I call home.
I also enjoy exploring different mediums and styles, though my main body of work has been in acrylic, depicting Nova Scotian landscapes and wildlife with a touch of realism. A large portion of my recent work has been highlighting my hometown, Truro.
