I live in a pastoral country setting;a small hobby farm surrounded by many beloved (and spoiled )creatures.I am a working artist influenced by my rural backdrop and creating diligently and enthusiastically out of my haunted historical studio in Owen Sound Ontario. I am drawn to our collective histories and an imaginary world of those who walked before us. I am a collector of ephemera, memories and rich discards ..Certainly treasures to be refashioned into new art.My background is editorial illustration and I am a visual storyteller. Rescuer of stray memories and strands of past lives. I believe in the transformational and healing qualities of art. It should always be joyful and full of many layers.

" the Twerp" has grown....
Ned-ley totally settled...and constantly causing a ruckus
Nala..peaceful bliss
towel cat Gus..
..Well not exactly..the cats are anyway..How is it that we always manage to muddle and struggle through January with all it's darkness and ice..But the thaw and renewed life is worth the chill..or so I keep saying.
