My background is eclectic and unconventional.However, for the past 35 years I have been identified as a visual artist. My practice has changed considerably over the years, but has always been an earnest and considered response to my take on the world
that I live in, and to my accumulating knowledge of the histories of art.
With a background in graphic work, I have sustained projects based on drawing and traditional print media. They have been at the core of my professional exhibition
history. More recently, I have stretched the site-situational, and (print)-stallational thrust of my work towards more sculptural territory.
Graphic work continues to be an important part of both my process and my thesis.The vocabulary that has
been distilled in the graphic work is manifested into the sculptural terrain.
Much of my time is split between my studios,in Toronto, and on the Atlantic coast of the south shore of Nova Scotia.Recently, I have taught sessionally in Drawing and
Print Media by invitation at the Ontario College of Art and Design, the Toronto School of Art, and in the Fine Art and Art History Program at Sheridan College.I am an active member of Open Studio Printmaking Centre, and am represented by Edward Day
Gallery.
