My portfolio strongly reflects my love affair of sailing and the wildlife of the west coast

Born in the Orient, I was primarily influenced by Chinese art at an early age, although I was not able to pursue it until later in life. After I moved to Canada in the late 70’s, education and family commitments largely kept my artistic vigour at bay, but I never abandoned my desire to commit myself to the craft. In 2015, when circumstances permitted, I decided to leave the corporate world and commit myself to becoming a full time artist.

 

My portfolio strongly reflects my love affair of sailing and the wildlife of the west coast where I went to university and worked for fifteen years. While my landscape work and PleinAir are heavily influenced by my fascination of the four season colours of Ontario and the East coast. A multiple winner of Juried shows, my inspirations are vast.

 

My repertoire includes everything from text book illustration to instructing public painting classes.
