I am a Toronto-based freelance painter who enjoys working in both acrylic and oil, sometimes incorporating the two into one painting. I work with a variety of supports from canvas and wood panel to acrylic panel. I am inspired by the unique aesthetics I observe in people in everyday life, bright saturated colours and imagery depicting the surreal and otherworldly.
