Mixed Media

I'm a mixed media artist based in Calgary, with a background in advertising copywriting and creative strategy. My process is intuitive and driven by curiosity, often sparked by a material or object that makes me stop and think, “I wonder what that would do?” From there, I experiment, layer, and respond, letting the work take shape without a fixed outcome in mind. For this show, I’m looking forward to sharing pieces from the following collections: Meditations on Love, Postal Joy, and Redacted Distraction.

What Your Support Makes Possible

Hi! And thank you for even considering offering me your support. Anything you contribute will be used to buy MORE SUPPLIES! I’m averaging 2-4 pieces a week and that is a lot of paint, paper and canvases! I’m currently preparing for my first show. And I’ve been invited to attend another show in the fall - maybe in Toronto!!! So if you’re in Alberta, come see me and my art April 24. And I’ll update again once I know when I’ll be at my next show (later this year). Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
