Since an early age, colors, atmospheres and the qualities of light present in nature have fascinated me. My early years spent in rural Nova Scotia left me with a love of the quiet and beauty of back roads and country settings.
My adolescence in Chicoutimi, in the province of Québec, impressed on me the nuances of colors and the changing quality of seasonal daylight in the Saguenay River back country.
My inspiration often comes in the form of an atmosphere or a particular lighting, a passing silhouette or an unusual color combination.
Outdoor painting gives me great satisfaction as it allows me to have a front row seat at the spectacular show provided by nature.
