I work in many mediums from painting (watercolour and acrylic) to drawing and sculpture. As a naturalist I explore and work to reflect my ecological perspective of life. I strive to bring attention to detail and overall design integrity together in impactful ways through art. I have drawn and painted landscapes and wildlife for over thirty years while I’ve lived in the Lake Simcoe region, and at international locations remaining active in conservation initiatives in Canada and abroad.

My art reflects a passion for the land, lakes, and wildlife. As an established Canadian visual artist my original art is in private and corporate collections in Canada, U.S.A., Europe, and other countries. Limited edition reproductions of my work have made my artistic vision accessible to a broader public in recent decades.

With published and/or illustrated scientific technical papers, book chapters and popular magazine articles, originality and authenticity are focuses of my art practice. Recently, my artwork has included new materials and methods of mixed media on paper and alternative surfaces, and original collage compositions of environmental importance. This work has included interpreting surprising important ecological and environmental subjects and processes.
