Granville Island Houseboats Print

Inspired by beauty around me, travel, and images that flood my head before the stillness of meditation, I am an Electrical Engineer turned artiste. Self-taught in fine art for many years, I consider myself a life-long learner. My formal lessons began with Gale Antokal (SJSU), and my wonderful but short stay at CCAC (San Francisco/Oakland). Inspired by many, my favorite current artistic influence is Tamara de Lempicka. I enjoy painting in many different styles, but my signature is the ongoing exploration of color. I started off painting original, sexy, colorful, fun, modern acrylic paintings. Now I am also exploring art as a healing modality, both for myself and private clients, and thus challenging the weighting we give the product, as compared with the process. My art typically exhibits at the Federation of Canadian Artists Gallery in Granville Island, Vancouver, BC but I also have my work in private collections around the world.
