Sobre el Artista

My work blends paper with ink, pencil and watercolour to create images that verge on memories real or imagined; glimpses of something happening that is just out of reach and perhaps even understanding. My works focus on the creation of image-based narratives founded in fables that explore dreams, nightmares, memories of times passed and those yet to be experienced; remembering, searching, questioning, longing and losing. I attempt in all of my works to above all, create relationships; between images, between myself and the pieces as I’m creating, and the potential relationship that can occur between the viewer and the piece once it is on the wall. I have been been putting glue to paper since I can remember. Having been born in the prairies of Saskatchewan to a Alsatian father, Acadian mother, and now living in Waterloo via Toronto, I am convinced that the puzzle that is my history was the founding of my fascination with bringing disparate images into one cohesive whole. I have studied and worked in the field of Fashion Marketing prior to moving my focus back into a fine arts discipline. Further studies have also brought me to be certified as a Creative Coach and Expressive Arts Therapist.
