I am a visual communicator: an Artist, Multimedia Designer and Cartoonist based in Winnipeg, Canada.

Unified by a curiosity about the ordinary and the overlooked, my art spans various disciplines, including digital photography and graphic design. Through my work, I capture familiar elements of our world that become symbolic, even iconic when reimagined pictorially. As a founding member of the Frost Shield Kerfuffle artist collective, I find strength in collaboration. Our adage, “We huddled together to stay warm” fuels our shared pursuit of artistic excellence.

In photography, I explore industrial/consumer environments and dystopian landscapes. When industry clumsily encroaches on nature or where a landscape dotted with empty signs becomes innocuous, I invite the viewer to reconsider our fabricated scenery.

With over two decades of experience in multimedia design, my skills range from creating technical diagrams, logos, and posters to video production, animation, and interactive eLearning. My artwork, inspired by the world of design, focuses on clear messages that have lasting recognition or confronts that desire to interpret the abstract.

The Get a Room comic strip, explores the amusing misadventures of the well-meaning assistant manager of an offbeat hotel. Its wit and tone are informed by 20 years in the hospitality industry, while the drawings reflect another 20 years spent creating professional illustrations.

Whether creating for screens and galleries or workplaces and classrooms, I aim to make ideas that communicate clearly and engage meaningfully. Rooted in both design and art, my practice often explores the tension between the built environment and the often-overlooked spaces within it. Through diverse mediums I reframe the ordinary to highlight its quiet symbolism, humour and sometimes, absurdity.
