I was raised in Barachois, a small Acadian village along the east coast of New Brunswick, Canada. I moved to Ottawa, Ontario in 1992 upon completing a Master's Degree in Public Administration. Intrigued by art since childhood, I further explored my passion for painting as an adult, advancing my skills through a combination of courses and my own experiences.
Over the years, I exhibited my work in several Canadian galleries and art exhibitions in Ottawa, Ontario and my native hometown. Since moving to Bethesda, Maryland in 2007, I completed a few commissioned pieces and participated in art exhibitions held in Washington DC and Maryland.
My work is inspired by my French Canadian culture. While searching for order and minimalism, my style ranges from simplified contemporary abstracts to calculated realistic compositions. Through colour, texture and mood, my work translates the stillness of the moment back to the viewer.
