Freshwater Reflections, acrylic on canvas, 48 x 60 in, 122 x 152 cm, 2021 Freshwater Reflections / Réflexions sur l'eau douce (2021-22)
Water reflections are filled with symbolism. They can mirror or distort the truth, depending on how peaceful the water is. Water reflections can also be interpreted as thoughts on the subject of water.

Fresh Breeze, acrylic on canvas, 30 x 48 in, 76 x 122 cm, 2021, SOLD On an Even Keel / En équilibre (2021)
“On an Even Keel” is the title of this series. Literally, the expression means keeping a vessel's keel in a level position, assuring smooth sailing. Figuratively speaking, it alludes to stability and balance.

Breaking Ice, acrylic on birch panel, 30 x 48 in, 76 x 122 cm, 2021, SOLD When the Ice Breaks / Quand la glace brise (2021)
When the ice literally starts to break in spring, the water can flow again. In this series, created during the silence of a winter lockdown, ice breaking is a metaphor for renewal and hope.

An 8 min video created in Sept 2020, thanks to the generous support of the Canada Council for the Arts / Conseil des arts du Canada.

One is All, acrylic on wood, 40 x 48 in, 102 x 122 cm, 2020, SOLD For the Love of Water / Pour l'amour de l'eau (2020)
During this time of isolation and physical distancing, I continue to explore our connection with water and reflect on the concept of interconnectedness.

In Osmosis (En osmose), acrylic on wood, 48 x 48 in, 122 x 122 cm, 2018, SOLD In Osmosis / En osmose (2018-19)
This body of work explores our physical, emotional and spiritual connection with water. Living on the shores of Lake Ontario, water is a constant source of inspiration, and for that reason, I am reminded daily of the importance of protecting the health of our waters.


Big Sky Ostrander Point - acrylic on wood, 40 x 60 in, 102 x 152 cm, 2014, SOLD In Love with the County (2014-18)
This series of paintings is inspired by my love and fascination for the island of Prince Edward County, Ontario, where I reside since 2013. The charming splendour of the island, surrounded by big Lake Ontario, continues to attract visitors to its shores and its vineyards. Many of them become residents, adding to the eclectic nature of the population. While focusing on the water, the wind, the terroir and people of “the county", my work addresses the importance of preserving the island’s natural environment.
