- The creative juices are flowing, as everywhere I turn, the views are so inspiring here on the Sunshine Coast, such as this view I get to look at every morning from my kitchen!!
- This year, I am excited and honoured to be one of the 36 Sunshine Coast Artists chosen for the Sechelt Hospital Foundation fundraising Gala event. I have donated a painting, “Joy Has No Age”, that will be shown from Oct 21-23 at the Sunshine Coast Botanical Gardens and then auctioned off at the Gala event that weekend.

- Every year the Sunshine Coast hosts a fabulous Art Crawl. There are over 150 artists all along this beautiful Coast displaying and selling their artwork. I have participated in three of these annual events since moving here and am looking forward to this years event, Oct 21-23. You can check out the website: www.sunshinecoastartcrawl.com
- Back in 2021, I teamed up with a Canadian clothing company, LeGaleriste, based in Montreal, that works with artists to integrate our artwork into fabric to create beautiful casual, formal and activewear ethically sourced clothing pieces and accessories. The photos in the title above are just three of the items available, featuring my artwork, “Through the Rain”, "Timeless" and “Pathways”. I'm very proud of this work and am excited to share the link to my personal site where you can purchase many items, including clothing, scarves & pillows. They can be shipped worldwide.

- From May 2022 - April 2023, my husband and I embarked on a huge sailing adventure where we lived on our sailboat while travelling through the USA from Maine to Florida. It was a great trip and we made some incredible memories. But, it’s very good to be back home and able to work in my studio again.
- In December 2021 - January 2022, one of my larger pieces, "Wanderlust", was featured in a show at Gibsons Public Art Gallery (GPAG) for Gallery members.
- In 2019 and 2020 I had the privilege of showing several pieces of my work at our beautiful Gibsons Public Market venue for month long shows each year.
- Back in February 2018 I had four of my pieces featured in the "Sensuality" Art Exhibit at One Flower One Leaf Gallery, Gibsons.
- In 2018-2019, I had the honour of having one of my pieces, "The Brightest Star", which is my tribute to singer, songwriter, Gord Downie, featured on a chocolate bar for "Art Meets Chocolate", which was here in Gibsons. I am really proud of this work and so happy this beautiful and delicious bar was being distributed across Canada! I subsequently shared my work "Make a Wish" and "Cedar Majesty" which were also featured on these great chocolate bars.
