Artist Statement
I aim to capture fleeting moments in time with the immediacy and spontaniety that watercolours bring. It may be an incredible landscape, a rocky beach, or a beautiful lighthouse. I only paint from photo reference I have captured myself. The experience of being there plays an important underlying role in the paintings emotive qualities. Paintings are built on photo reference, sketches, and memories.

The objective is to be representational but at the same time keep the work spontaneous, and fresh. Watercolours are an ongoing process of never ending exploration, and it's twice as fun when it includes exploring the world.
Biography
After graduating from the Alberta College of Art in 1987 I went on to work as an Art Director for an Advertising Agency in Edmonton, Alberta. In 1990 I ventured out on my own as a freelance Illustrator and Designer. From 1991 to 1996 I also taught Graphic Design and Illustration in the Visual Communications program at Grant MacEwen Community College.
Some of my art has appeared in publications for clients such as Purdue University Alumni, Temple University, American Motor Association, American Psychiatric As- sociation, National Geographic Kids, Hockey Canada, and others. I have exhibited works in Toronto, Calgary, and Edmonton. I currently freelances as an illustrator/artist from my Home/Studio located in Edmonton.
