The Blackening Painting

Self-directed artist, renaissance woman, gypsy, free spirit with a talented passion for art, I was raised in many parts of Canada, from sea to shining sea, including the Arctic. I like to think of myself as a student of life, each day a new experience. Creating art provides me with the opportunity to spread beauty. Originally trained in classical music, progressing to blues, jazz, developing an eclectic style as a vocalist, & composer, I also enjoy photography & writing, I am always looking for the deeper meaning, and connection. My art has become a way to express that. Just now I am beginning to scratch the surface of my capabilities. Besides mural work and regular format work, I also specialize in miniature art.Inspiration is found in the simplest things, a raindrop on a window, a certain glow of light, it's reflections, and shadows. Mythology, music, dreams are important... I am working on creating from that. Creativity has always been my salvation, the grace of my existence. My artwork has gone to various parts of Canada and the US, as well as the Caribbean and England.
