About Me

I am an artist located in central British Columbia, Canada. My small business is based on local referrals and sales. This website is a portfolio to share the art I enjoy creating, as well as a digital catalogue for customers in my community to keep track of current prices and availability.

I have enjoyed experimenting and creating in different art mediums from a very young age. In 2010 and 2011, I passed with distinction two London Art College courses, Painting & Drawing and Pet Portraiture, then went on to develop and apply my art skills in portraiture, illustration, cartooning, graphic design, and sculpture. My artwork is in private collections in North America, Europe, and Australia.

I find inspiration in both the majestic and the whimsical aspects of nature, as well as the day-to-day events of country living. From roughing out cedar carvings with my chainsaws, to detailing a watercolour painting with the finest microliner brushes, I love the process of creating new characters and designs out of raw materials.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you ever ship your original fine-art items?

Not at this time. Pick up only! :-)

Do you accept credit card payments or e-transfers?

For the original fine-art items on my website, I accept cash only. For licensing or print-on-demand arrangements, contact me to discuss other payment options.

Do you ever offer art classes? Woodcarving demonstrations?

Not formally, no. I am in fact a terrible multi-tasker, especially in front of an audience. In my free time, though, I do love sharing ideas and tips, and as of 2026 I am in the process of writing and illustrating a guide book of my favourite woodcarving tools and techniques. Until its completion…feel free to email me any art-related questions or suggestions.
