Visual Art – Calgary

Originally a born and raised west coast island girl, here I am in Alberta, among the mountains and that great big sky; somewhere I thought I'd never find myself. I also never expected to find myself so deeply entranced with this world of art I now find myself so in love with. I've always had a passion for anything creative; dance, music, theatre, fashion, writing....it all lights my soul on fire. I started painting about three years ago. I was alone on New Years eve and I painted my first city-scape....that was it for me; I was hooked. I spent the next three years burning through paint and canvas and weekends creating whatever came into my mind or inspired me. I am both terrified and excited to share my most recent work with you and I can't wait to continue on this crazy journey. Right now I am obsessed with really graphic, modern collages and mixed media works. I'm using all the colours and just taking inspiration from the world around me and icons that inspire me. If you like what you see, please fee free to reach out to me via my Instagram page. When creating & sharing any form of art, we take the world along on a journey to that place we got lost in for a little while. Come get lost with me.....
