Artist Statement:

As an artist, I explore the interplay of light and shadow, embracing the balance between the random and the refined. With a limited palette, I create vibrant and harmonious colours through loose gestures and bold brushstrokes. My art reflects my familial heritage and deep connection to my native land as a third-generation painter and first-generation Canadian.

Using mainly acrylic paint, I bring my expressive visions to life, infusing each stroke with intention and emotion. By painting on wood panels, I establish a stronger connection to the natural world, enhancing the tactile quality and rootedness in the landscapes I depict.

Through my art, I seek to inspire hope and evoke peace in a struggling world. In my artistic journey, I embrace exploration, vibrant hues, and heartfelt expression. The influences of my personal explorations across my homeland of Canada shape the narratives and themes that emerge in my art. When I step up to the canvas, I embrace a sense of playfulness and surrender, allowing myself to let go and invite the Holy Spirit to guide my creative process.
