Walk at the Butchart Gardens Painting

My creative process begins with an experience. There are times and places that speak to me in ways that I can only describe through my practice as an artist - it is essential that I capture these moments of inspiration so that others can experience the beauty that exists around us. To transform that memory, rich with sensuality and coloured by emotions, into a palpable reality as a painting or an art project, I choose to discard what it is trivial for my message, reducing it to only the most essential details - a horizon, divided by colour fields, tuned by layering to mimic the complex depth that reverberates in my memory of a place.
