ARTIST STATEMENT
Owner, Lyrical Art Gallery, Red Deer Alberta 2007 - 2020
I need to create. It’s a peaceful time where I am one with the painting. As it starts to come alive, I follow the cues. It tells me what to do next. The energy and the power come across the canvas. When I step back from the painting to observe, I feel a wow moment. I am amazed. I just cannot keep my eyes off the piece. I leave the studio and keep coming back for another look. I feel such joy and satisfaction. Sometimes I sense a painting needs to have the energy rest. As time passes images and forms mystically appear. It is like magic! It is so rewarding! I feel honored to be a part of the process and grateful for the gift.
