Opening reception:
November 2 | 7:30 pm
My paintings document the landscapes of Ontario. I’m drawn to the elements that are constantly changing – the sky, light and shadow. I tend to focus on the most changeable parts of the scene – the clouds and colours, particularly between day and dusk. The impermanence of the clouds and light from moment to moment is my primary interest as a painter.
The horizon line is often placed low in the paintings, allowing me to fully explore and place emphasis on the sky. The colours used are often saturated and interpretive, creating a heightened sense of drama and mood.

The Art Gallery of Bancroft is situated on the traditional territory of the Anishinaabeg Algonquins, which is known to be unceded. Indigenous people have been stewards of this land since time immemorial; as such we honour and respect their connection to the land, its plants, animals and stories. Our recognition of the contributions and historic importance of Indigenous peoples is sincerely aligned to our collective commitment to make the promise and the challenge of truth and reconciliation real in our community.
