Creating out of Hinton, Alberta

As a biologist, I enjoy focusing on the native plants that grow in Western Canada, primarily around Jasper National Park, which is close to home. Through my art, I hope to help reconnect people with the natural world.

Over the years, I have found that learning about native plants has helped me build my connection with nature and I want to pass this on to others. I create pieces which introduce people to the ‘faces’ of their green and leafy neighbors. Each delicate design draws your eyes into the main identifying features of the native plant, which helps you familiarize yourself with the plants around you.

My pieces seek to capture the essence of native plants and my art encourages you to pay attention to and appreciate the small things in life. 

We have all been given gifts by The Almighty, and I have been taught that we should use these gifts to create positive change in the world. So, I use my art as a way to give back to my community. I have dedicated 25% of my profits to charity and I do my best to use my art in other ways to build up others, such as hosting art classes for not-for-profit organizations, or auctioning off pieces for charity. If you are interested in booking me for a charitable event, please contact me directly.
