Inspired by my uncle who would always give me art supplies for Christmas. I began drawing at a young age. In grade six I became a professional artist of sorts by selling my classmates drawings of hockey goalies for the princely sum of 25 cents. Later on I graduated from The Alberta College of Art in Calgary, majoring in Visual Communications. I went on to sketch courtroom scenes for a television station. Then as a freelance illustrator & designer. My painting career has focused on watercolours of land, sea, and nature from my travels.
