Artist Statement

I produce large scale abstracted landscapes with a focus on the materiality of the paint to allude to emotion and feeling within the natural space. I reference landscapes from across Canada and create these works with brooms, palette knives and liters of paint on birch panels. My work has unique finishes and sheens varying from shiny to matte to indicate an intuitive feeling of a geographical element in the landscape.
