Living in Ontario with my husband John, two large dogs and three cats, I have always found inspiration for my art in my immediate surroundings and find that even the different seasons influence how and what I do.

I deliberately focus on a main subject in my watercolours, (a result of my love for and study of Chinese art), then use layers of wash to try to get the colours to “sing,” rather than aim for pure realism. I like to add interesting little side elements to my subjects and will often include a dash of whimsy.

My paintings and reproductions have been exhibited in numerous and varied venues over the years. Now, many paintings, shows and galleries later, we have arrived on the web.

Welcome to Artistic Nuances.

Hope you enjoy.
