About The Artist

Since the mid 70’s my photo based art has pushed the envelope technically and visually, often going beyond the “traditional” depiction of subjects, playing with what is real and what seems real but isn’t; the visionary and the transformative, re-presenting the world and inviting us to see otherwise. Since 2009, I have been specializing in photobased digital painting combining photography and painting into a digital mixed media. This is a medium that is so new most of the general public have never seen it before. Mini bio: Born in Prince Edward Island, Canada.
