Originally from the Saguenay, Quebec, I am a contemporary Canadian visual artist, based in Ontario, Canada. Being immersed in the outdoors, where my childhood years were spent exploring, hiking, drawing and painting, is my chief source of inspiration.
I invite you to connect deeply through my art to the healing of nature, to the joy of special moments, the awesomeness of place, people and everyday things, or to the making of art itself. Timeless and often metaphorical, my art also gives room for you to tell your own story. Many moves across the continent have enriched my experiences and expanded my vision. Recording life in any painting medium, with all senses involved, is the foundation of my work, no matter the subject.
Having achieved a BFA at Mount Allison University in New Brunswick (1973), I have painted alongside western landscape painters in Alberta and Saskatchewan (1990's). I am presently a member of the Fine Arts Society of Milton (FASM) and the Credit Valley Artisans (CVA) in Georgetown, Ontario.
