I love living beside the Winnipeg River within the Boreal Forest. It supplies an endless resource of beauty and materials which influence my art and feeds my soul. This will be my sixth year in the tour, (having taken a break due to an injury).
As a self taught artist, I love to explore different types of art forms. I take inspiration and great pleasure in nature and gardening, from growing the seeds into plants and flowers, and by gathering wild herbs and other flora. I then create my works of art by combining the different mediums together, such as watercolour and pressed flowers to make one of a kind pictures and cards.
This year I have been exploring felting, using pure wool and adding embellishments such as embroidery to create unique pictures that tell a story. I enjoy sharing my art with others and display my work at Gwen Fox Gallery in Selkirk as well as a few other locations. I am always willing to help other artists develop their skills when asked.
Thank you to the board of The Boreal Shores Art Tour who make it possible to showcase my art and be part of a talented group of artists.
