The High Street is the main shopping district in St. Peter Port, Guernsey, one of the Channel Islands. The painting was created from a photograph taken half way up the street and facing into the sun. The shoppers are back lit as they hurry up and down the hill. The street is thousands of years old, and guernsey people have been living and shopping here forever. One of the major Canadian heroes was actually born in a house exactly where the photo was taken - Sir Isaac Brock. The painting has a bright, warm yellow/orange sky, with cool blue/violet pavement and cobbles. A modern approach to an old world view.

Boats, seascapes, people and the homes and buildings that have special meaning for them -- these are the foundations of my work as an artist. My travels to Guernsey, Channel Islands, the home of my family and where I spent many formative years, and my travels throughout Canada, where I now live and find inspiration, provide the images and impressions that are the subjects of my latest works. I have a fascination with line, its inward and outward curves, how it separates human from natural space, how it can transmute the physical and visual history of a building or landscape into their present day forms. My passion for history and the dimensions of line have inspired me to create a series of pen and ink drawings based on the history of Guernsey. In addition to my Guernsey series, I am often commissioned by my clients to create pen and ink drawings of their homes, their families or a favorite car or boat. In each drawing, my challenge is to depict the unique personalities of the subjects. For my paintings, I favor acrylic on stretched canvas. Acrylic allows me to lay washes of color to reflect depth and atmosphere and it allows me to represent the vagaries of light, its conflict with shadow, and how colors are transformed by both. I now live and work in Guelph, Ontario, Canada. Having studied with such established artists as Nan Hogg, Kathleen Schmalz, and Janette Hayhoe, I work out of a studio in Guelph as well as on location.
