My journey as an artist started drawing when I was barely old enough to clutch a crayon and I continued drawing voraciously throughout my teens. My high school art teacher, a former student of Alex Colville, presented me with the art award at graduation and encouraged me to study fine art at university; alas, I didn't feel confident in my abilities. I graduated from Mount Allison University with a history degree and a French diploma, and ended up teaching Social Studies en français. When my students learned of my love of art, they begged me to offer art lessons, and so over the course of several years I created a high school art program. During my summer breaks, I began studying at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design where I dabbled in a wide array of media. Eventually I left teaching to pursue a long overdue career in art. Since then I have freelanced as a designer of greeting cards websites. My art cards have sold at the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia and Sears. I also create art and photography giftware which I sell online.
