Nature Naturally
May 3rd - 30th, 2024
These pieces express the light, colour, and the essential joy of the interior of Saskatchewan’s boreal forest landscape. Nature Naturally depicts the woodlands from across the province, inspired by plein air painting and photography excursions. Each piece is composed with an underpainting of non-toxic natural paints, mixed by hand and further enhanced with traditional oil paints. The combination of naturally made paints with contemporary materials explores the juxtaposition of depicting the untouched beauty of the outdoors, made accessible by human made roads and trails along with their associated structures.

Gone Fishing
May 3rd - 30th, 2024
In my work I am continuously exploring different relationships in pottery forms, such as inside-outside, symmetry-asymmetry, strong-fragile, line-color and decoration-pattern. My inspiration is daily experience and my connection with the natural world.
I use low/medium fire clays to make functional and sculptural forms. Each piece starts out as a blank canvas that is finished with texture and layering of color.
Gone Fishing is a collection of works using fish imagery in different ways. Fish represent joy and transformation in these pieces. They are inspired by memories of places lived and visited in my life’s journey so far.
