Artist Statement:
I was born and raised in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Initially I studied to become a commercial artist but in the final analysis I decided that fine art gave me the most pleasure. After experimenting with various mediums I decided that oil/canvas best satisfied my eye. For a number of years I had a hobby-farm in Northern Ontario. From this experience I I gained a huge love for the great outdoors. Living in a rural setting where natures story unfolded at your doorstep played a huge influence in my painting landscapes. . Though I am known for my landscapes, I also like to paint the other disciplines of still-life & portraits. .
