Art that radiates joy, colour and connection
Step into a kaleidoscope world inspired by the beauty of the Canadian landscape.
Me, when it's a paint day!
Nothing makes me happier than
a full paint day! Music playing
and colours dancing across
the canvas. My soul is truly alive!
Bold. Colourful. Unapologetically Joyful.
Explore original art that brings the outside in — with heart and a wild palette.
Hand-Painted. Literally!
When I’m in the flow, there’s no staying clean — and that’s just how I like it. The mess isn’t a mistake; it’s a badge of honour from the creative trenches.
Hot Off the Easel
My Philosophy
From my "Cabin in the Woods" studio, I paint with the belief that art has the power to lift, connect, and awaken something joyful in all of us. Surrounded by nature’s rhythm and beauty, I create in vibrant, expressive colour — often with cotton candy skies and kaleidoscopic patterns — to reflect the wonder I see in the world.
