I am an Ottawa-based figurative oil painter using intuition and memory to create vibrant work that asks "what does it mean to be human?"

“The job of the artist is always to deepen the mystery.”

    - Francis Bacon

"If I were called upon to define briefly the word Art, I should call it the reproduction of what the senses preceive in nature, seen through the veil of the soul."

    - Paul Cezanne

“The role of the artist is to ask questions, not answer them.”  

    - Anton Chekhov
