Biography

Born and raised in a little town outside of Moncton, New Brunswick called Lakeburn (now called Dieppe), I have been drawing and painting ever since I can remember, beginning with drawing from images in an old set of red encyclopedias that we had in the house.  While I was growing up, our family spent weekends and vacations camping along the beaches and rivers throughout the Atlantic Provinces, Quebec and Ontario.  Dad, who was avid fly fisherman and Mom, who was born and raised on a farm in Quebec, loved to take walks and explore, so we were always out walking the beaches, rivers or forests picking berries, fishing, digging clams, camping...it was just part of our lives and the usual way we spent our time together.  
When I was old enough to leave home I couldn't wait to get out of the maritimes because I thought the pace of life was too slow, the towns too small and that the grass had to be greener everywhere else.  Now that I have explored other parts of the world and have a better sense of how fortunate I have been, those are exactly the things I cherish most.  These memories continue to influence my work along with the process of gathering reference material, sketching or painting on location and creating the paintings in my studio.
