Biography
An oil painting artist born and raised in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, I lived most of my childhood on a treed acreage, where I found being around wildlife exciting and a comfort. I have always had a deep love for wildlife and a compassion for animals. I sketched animals and found pure joy in doing so.
Life lead me on a different path for quite some time, and after sustaining a head injury which took me off that path, I discovered that it did so for a very important reason... So that I could focus soley on art, and working toward change. Seeing in a way I wasn't able to previously, I am attempting to bring to you the beauty of wildlife in hopes that you will feel the same compassion that I do for all of Earth's creatures.
Support for Conservation:
The Costa Rica Animal Rescue Center. As a volunteer there, I was able to see the great need they have in order to support the animals. I was asked to donate an 8 x 12 foot wall painting which I was fortunate to have the time to complete. As well, I was able to spend time looking after and feeding the sloths and some of the other animals.
