Bio |
With limited artistic experience in high school and almost zero drawing skills, I persevered with my creative ambitions earning a Fine Arts Degree at Parsons School of Design in New York and Paris, graduating in 1993 with a major in Fashion Design. On returning home to British Columbia, Canada I began my own business designing and manufacturing children’s clothes, selling to stores in Western Canada and Toronto. Marrying in 1996, I switched gears, devoting all my time and energies to raising and homeschooling my two children. While a busy mother, I contributed to the family finances creating two online shops selling plus size lingerie, and Asian statues. Now, with children grown to independence, I have decided to once again explore my artistic passion, taking on the challenges of working 3 dimensionally, an interest sparked in university. My Sculptures and 3D Relief Paintings are all about capturing the funny moments and ridiculous characters that fill up our daily experience. Happy and joyful, the subjects and colors are a reflection of my desire to create artwork that brings warmth and humor into any space in which it is displayed. |
