The Hopeful's Eye Painting

I was born in Montreal where I now work and live with several cats and one human who thinks he’s a cat. I earned my diploma of college studies of the arts in 1995, studied graphic design and became addicted to computers in 1996, then my mid-thirties crisis demanded in 2008 that I throw myself into more physical pursuits, so I became a horticulturist. I have since returned to computers and paintbrushes but my love of plants endures and I am past master at fitting yet another one in an already very densely green home. I am a representational painter and love telling stories, be they mine or someone else’s, memories or dreams, wherein I weave symbols and fantasy elements. I am especially fond of tarot cards. I tend to draft my loved ones and my cats as models.
