Two Perfect Kids

I am a 21-year-old student attending Sheridan College. I am  in the second year of their four-year Bachelor of Applied Arts - Illustration Program and graduated from their Art Fundamentals Program the year before.

For the past three years, a lot of my work has been inspired by images from old family photo albums. I enjoy the feeling of taking an old photo, long since forgotten, and introducing it to a whole new group of people, through my interpretation of it.

I have an outdoor gallery during the summer, at Black River Cheese in Prince Edward County.  I exhibited one piece of art in Peggy Dewitt’s “Tampered With” Art Show in June of 2008.

I entered two drawings in the “At My Age” Juried Art Exhibition at the John M. Parrott  Art Gallery in the Belleville Public Library in September of 2008 and both were accepted.
